It is indeed the best board. Good looking, very good specs.
He s just overreacting i guess.
But slowest support of all time. That the only bad thing.
Pros about this mobo ;
- Praz, Elmor, Raja ' s personal supports.
- It looks lit. I means cool.
- Tons of usb ports. Got 90 + points of all along the reviewers.
Cons :
- Ram combatilibity. QVL list hastn been updated since 16 March.
- Lack of bios. Every other mobos (asus' itself included) gets their updates much early. But this one is tooooo slow.

Code 8 is multi purpose code of instability. It can be CPU/RAM related or even when an situation in OS occurs were CPU destabilse you will have code 8.
I have had my board since launch on pre-order, it is a solid board IMO. I have had 3x R7 1700 on it and used Corsair, Crucial and G.Skill RAM on it. So built up a fair bit of experience on it.
The members recommending the K7 may not be aware that Gigabyte boards seem to bork regularly on OCN from members shares. Taichi has such a crap UEFI that buildzoid is always ranting about it on youtube, there is virtually a video every month.
What UEFI version are you on? when in UEFI on the main page it will say, if you have USB stick in a port pressing F12 will take screenshot.

I would suggest try forcing the BIOS to update via USB stick first using hte botton. *The method is fairly easy to find around here. *That will at least tell you if your board has stability issues with the latest official BIOS. *If it still posts with the same code after updating, I'd send it back for a refund and try to find one somewhere else or wait for Amazon to get more in.

That's how I've done it before but decided to try again. Tried both updates 1107 and 1403 but still the same. The 8 appears immediately, there's no cycling through other codes. Think the board is dead :(. Now whether to get another or go for maybe the Strix
