I would either RMA the thing or run it after doing some kind of check for over heating components.

Apparently RMAing the board is not a solution as some are getting the same "backwards" part. If that is indeed the issue. Asus really needs to come clean on this one. Learn from NZXTs and others mistake.

come clean to what? An internet rumor? Get serious. Heres a simpler overheating check shut the machine down and discharge all residual power to ground, ground yourself and touch the surface of any chips of concern trying to avoid exposed circuits. Are they even hot?

It wasnt an internet 'rumour' there was decent evidence to support this theory. There's even been electrical engineers commenting on how the capacitors that come on reels or in cartridges can sometimes be backwards, meaning the pick and place machine places them incorrectly.

I see, but at the time I wrote that my perspective was different, I was not going to go and study every internet posting on the issue, I judged it based on reasons I already stated. It was an incorrect judgement.

According to what I just read on a site specializing in computer products, this problem is encountered a lot in North America, however Asus has to repatriate all the MB, because even in my country in Europe it is no longer for sale as of today, so the recall campaign has started well everywhere... at all their resellers.
