CPU/Mobo MSI X99-A Sli Plus USB 3.1 Is it worth it?

[samd]

Just ordered MSI X99-A Sli Plus USB 3.1 for i7 5820k. Is anyone using it already? Came to know they are having problem with ram slots. I also have other option of Asus x99 strix gaming mobo.

Any advice would be welcome.

Thank you for that post. I am myself little skeptical with MSI after service. But i am buying it from local vendor , so i guess in case of trouble i can ask him for rma. Hope i will not have deal with it though.[DOUBLEPOST=1475752269][/DOUBLEPOST]

Asus strix is expensive than msi sli plus. But both are budget friendly though compared to other high end mobo's.

A local vendor is not of much use, unless backed by the company. In my case, an enterprise vendor has put their hands up.
