I'm totally not a fan of Asus anymore. My old 2600k system (an Asus) which I have my 7y son using now is still rock solid. New one... I'm on my third 6850k, and only discovered what I think was the crazy-as-hell offending default high voltage when using XMP after 6 weeks on the third, so I'm expecting some degradation to have taken place.
I should have demanded the dodgy Asus Strix X99 board be replaced at with the first CPU replacement (it was 99.999% likely the Asus' board's fault, not Intel's CPU - even though they got fried), alas now it's too late.
I have weird issues such as not being able to get it to boot every time if Hyper V is enabled, so I have to run Docker using Virtualbox. I'm really quite over the Asus QC and will go e.g. Threadripper + Gigabyte next time.
