So, two or three - maybe.
Also, I've never had a board go "taco".
It's a testimony to the products quality, the maker is confident and want's the customer to trust that this board should last.
Maybe that mobo and CPU will be good enough as a surf and/or office PC still in 5 years time.. After 2-3 years a gamer normally has a completely new build for his gaming rig.
I've got a PSU with a 7 year warranty by the way..
I'm running +2.5 years on my current rig.. I've saved up for something new when I know better how CLoDO will perform.
