My ASUS Rampage II Extreme is seriously the worst looking motherboard as far as build quality that I've owned in the past year. It has tons of features, but what good are bells and whistles when you want your stable OC? The sound card they provide being a separate sound device is restrictive and gives heat to my graphics card... The layout is really nice but it could use a lot of polish. I wish your friend the best of luck.

There's more to IT than just building computers.

Replacing a part in a computer and totally building a new one from scratch are two entirely different beasts. Some IT's never have to build computers, only worry about servicing them both hardware and software wise.
