Hi there,

I am building a new PC, (my first from scratch). All of the reviews I have read for this board have been glowing and positive, yet I am concerned. Firstly, my son experienced the infamous RTC freeze on his ASUS ROG Maximus VI Hero and also due to some of the issues appearing on the official forums. Of course, with respect and appreciation, this is exactly what the forums are for and provide needed assistance where possible. That said, as owners, you are the best source of knowledge. Please consider the statements below and comment on how/if they apply to your experience.

1: I have had no trouble with this board and would recommend it without hesitation.

2: I have had some initial issues, but now have no issues and am happy with choice.

3: I have had to RMA the board and/or still have unresolved issues remaining

Your opinions would be very much valued and appreciated, thank you.
 
I recently upgraded from the Hero VI to the VII. Installation and setup went without a hitch. I've put it through some pretty major workouts over the last two weeks or so (lots of shutdowns and startups, overclocking, adding and removing components, etc) and haven't had a single problem with it. I love it.

Edit: I should add that I never had any problems with the VI either and still have it in one of my other computers.
