Motherboard Appears to be DOA
I bought this motherboard to replace the current motherboard in my brother's computer that can be finicky. Unfortunately when I installed the motherboard the computer failed to start. After much troubleshooting the only thing I can pin it down to is a faulty motherboard because the old motherboard works fine. I have tested the PSU on another computer and another PSU on this computer. I've tried multiple sticks of RAM. Multiple graphics cards. Reseating the CPU and the CPU cooler. Since the computer works with the old motherboard (albeit finicky) and not this motherboard I declare this a dead motherboard and a poor deal.

Exactly as described
1 of 1 found this helpful I spilled Pepsi on my computer over Christmas break of college. After a lot of testing I found that the motherboard was fried and I'd need to buy a new case too. A friend ended up selling me a case and motherboard that supported a LGA 1155 socket. I looked up the best CPU for that socket and after debating between the 3570, 3570k, 3770, and the 3770k I decided on the 3570. I was able to have a working computer that performs as well as, or possible even better than my AMD FX-8350 with the same R9 290. I am extremely happy with my purchase. It works flawlessly, and stays at a great temperature even with a stock Intel heat-sink. This made the spilling the soda on my computer okay because for about $300 I'll now have two good computers once I buy the other motherboard for my AMD CPU. For only $116 including the shipping this was a great deal. It also arrived very quickly, within a week give or take a few days.
