Doesn't seem good. So there could be a virus that increases the voltage going to the CPU by say 2v on all of the newer asus mobos. Does asus make mobos for major companies or are they only available separately? It seems to me that the people who build their computers are more tech savvy and are less likely to get a virus. (better AV and safer practices)
just sorta thinking to myself there . . .
