I purchased a supposedly new motherboard from Ascendtech for a laptop that was only 1 year old. I recieved the wrong one from Ascendtech on the first delivery. I returned it and recieved the correct one and it turned out to be bad. It was advertised as NEW but was actually REFURBISHED. I called Ascendtech support and they recommended sending it in for testing and refused to replace it with another one. The technician was rude. Todays date is 6-6-11 and have been getting the run-around from ascendtech since 4-25-11. They will not co-operate and now the 30 day return period is up. We can't get a replacement or refund. $129.98 for a worthless motherboard. DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY. If anyone has advice contact me at [email protected].
