I had a similara issue, I RMA'd it after they told me to expect a charge and they repaired it free:P Guess it just depends on who handles it? I didn't even try to argue that it came that way rofl.I was told to expect a $100 charge, and I had to pay shipping to them. They, again, repaired it free and shipped it back at no cost. I just paid for shipping to ASUS.Do you have some kind of documentation?

Jandy parts, jandy repair, jandy automation, iAqualink, jandy PDA, plc1400, aquapure, sensor.

ASUS does not in anyway replace a board for free if you have bent pins on a motherboard. ASUS is not a gift shop. Raysource fs2you download for mac.

So unless you have some kind of documentaion.not true.
