Review on ASUS Dominus Performance Motherboard Aquantia by Joseph Harkins

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Unfortunately it doesn't work

There were two of them and both give CPU code 00 and don't even try to publish. iterates through all the codes and looks like a good download but ends up throwing an error and won't load. I sent the board back and the replacement unit did the same. I tried every trick in the book to make it work. This was a new build so to make sure the w-3175 was correct I ordered the gigabyte version and it started up with no problems the first time. Unfortunately, I've been an Asus fan for almost 20 years. It's sad to have an $1800 board. You can read reviews elsewhere with the same or similar issues on these forums. The Asus board has a much better feature set, but if it doesn't work, what can you do?

Pros
  • Fits a lot of people
Cons
  • Negative impression
