I bought a gigabyte board, that arrives today, I will let you know how it turns out.
This was my first Asus board so I was a bit disappointed that it was bad, but bad boards happen to every manufacturer, I guess in the end it comes down to luck of the draw. I was going to go with Abit as I have had lots of their boards in the past with out issue, however as slinki stated, he got a bad one.
