it probably sounds worst than it is, either than the fact that one has
to play beta tester....I enjoy it to some extend...Asus seems to be
working hard to get things ironed out, and that helps big time. It
would not be unwise to wait a month or so....assuming you can get the
chips. That auto overclock thing is dirt simple to do and will be
sufficient for all but a few. Asus as done their homework on this:

Yes, but I had a problem. My boot drive wasn't in the list of drives available
to boot from (only the USB and optical drives were available, but there is a
force boot option that you can only pick while in the bios, it doesn't persist
once you exit --- that's what I used to get into windows and check things out).
This was probably a bios (EFI) issue and maybe had something to do with which
SATA ports I was using.
Moving to the Intel 6GB/s sata ports, rather than the 3GB/s sata ports,
resulted in the bios (EFI) seeing my boot drives (SSD and HDs) [that's some
kind of bug for sure, but I'm not sure where -- likely EFI -- they came out
with a new one since). After this, then the drag and drop from the basis menu
works, or you can go into the advanced menu and just pick.

I've just about got this Asus mobo up...but I can't seem to figure out how to
get it to boot from my SSD automatically...I can force it from within the EFI,
but it doesn't seem to give me the option to select the SSD as the boot drive.
