You know the board you are returning is also a very good board, maybe you just need to follow up on the BSOD or exchange it.
I looked at the thread about your BSOD and you are overclocked to 4.2 GHz - whether you did it or the board automatically did it (it shouldn't). The BSOD are likely because the overclock isn't stable because the BIOS settings aren't right. I can't help you there - that is something you have to work out on your own, but if you haven't sent the board back yet, you might try resetting the BIOS to its optimal default settings and verifying it isn't overclocked.
