Unreliable at best. Do not buy.

Bought for my new build. Unfortunately I didn't do any research. There is a cold boot issue on Aorus boards that won't boot up randomly. Apparently it has to do with the two bios running on the board. If they are not updated properly, they will cause the board to hang and not load properly. On mine I tried removing the battery and clearing the CMOS and nothing worked (fixed this solution on some forums that said the problem was fixed but only temporarily). It booted up once after all that, but only had the bare minimum attached to it. Add something else (monitor, disk, gpu) and it won't start. I sent it back and bought something from MSI.

Pros
  • New to my collection
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled
