Software is the unimportant part though, and can be fixed in time. Intel has had mobo and CPU recalls in the past, those are a bigger issue than software and require you to disassemble and reassemble your whole PC, not to mention leaving it down while you wait for replacement parts.

Im just happy there are no hardware bugs this time around, at least not that have been found yet.

Well... These software issues, at least for Asus, have been so bad that mobos have ended up being paper weights.

Those Intel boards at least were stable. That SATA3 Gb/s bug was really annoying but I honestly think that unstable software is even more annoying especially if it stays that way for quite some time.

Thats one manufacturer though not AMD as a whole, Asus dropped the ball, badly.

Obviously AMD provided enough time to have a relatively smooth launch from the mobo side because look at gigabyte and ASrock, both looking alot better than Asus this time around.

Asus is not the people to go with for AM4, at least not yet.
