Review : Lots of people reporting power issues
Lots of people have reported issues with this board. Check out reviews at places like newegg. Basically, if you are unlucky enough to get a dud board, (and there seem to be a lot judging by the number of people reporting the same issue) it will frequently not power on. People have reported having to reset CMOS each time. Other have had 2 and 3 replacement boards from ASUS, and each has failed in the same way. I bought one and have had this issue. Now waiting for a replacement but there is no way I would trust this board for jobs where reliability and stability is needed. I'm going to use the replacement to build my first gaming rig, play around a bit in a situation where it's unreliability won't affect my business reputation.
Be very careful and check out reviews before buying this board.
