I bought a refurbished ASUS M5A99X EVO from Geeks.com about 6 months ago, received it and one PCIe slot was dead and the other died the next day. Since I heard unpleasant stories about ASUS RMA, and since the refurbished board was screwed up right out of the box, I think I made the right decision to mail it back for a refund a day after I received it.
Didn't even bother RMAing my ASUS Crosshair III Formula when it had a 3 year warranty and quit working after 2.5 years either. Surprisingly, the 3 ASUS motherboards from 2006 that I have (A8N-E, A8N32SLI Deluxe and P5WDH Deluxe) that I bought from 3 different members on TPU all still work fine to this day. The only modern ASUS board I have is the M3A78-CM Brandonwh64 sold me and that works fine, but I really don't want to play these RMA games with the newer boards unfortunately.
