Hi I have done the following: remove CMOS batt, unplug all hdd except os ssd and also USB peripherals except mouse and kb. After restarting, enter os and load optimized defaults. Still same problem.

I did everything again this time using another psu and set of rams, same result.

Thanks for following up, appreciated. If you want to take this offline and into pm I'm ok too, pm me if you want

With the 6th iteration of the Maximus series from the Republic of Gamers lineup, Asus has consistently produced high quality and versatile motherboards which cater to every user group, be it the normal user whom appreciates the ROG quality to the extreme overclockers that stand and compete on the world stage. From its overclocking features that don’t lose to its bigger brothers to the high quality audio experience via its SupremeFX chip and 8 SATA3 ports in a mATX setting, coupled with almost everything that a hardware enthusiast can dream of, the Maximus VI Gene is a perfect board for big players with a size constrain.

Moderator, lets create a thread for personal grievances. Saves me the time of having to filter through.


If I get a crappy m/b, I will not RMA. Throw it away and buy a new m/b cos all distros will replace with a refurbished one.


Just buy from Amazon. Cheaper than current standalone m/b prices here.
