This url, for example:

https://www.asus.com/us/Graphics-Cards/STRIX-GTX950-DC2OC-2GD5-GAMING/HelpDesk_Download/

This is how it should look:

And this is how it looks in Opera, Chrome and Vivaldi:

The difference is huge! It works fine in Firefox and IE11, but also fails in Edge. Any ideas of why?

Here I got the same result - like in your second picture - on all browsers using the given link.

Yeah, for me Firefox looks like the second picture. So it isn't just Blink-based browsers. Even Presto looks like the second image ...

Seriously? Using Firefox 48.0.2 and IE11 on Win 7 x64 it shows like the first screenshot.

Well, this is really strange... This happened in both Opera and Chrome:
-Site shows the black version
-Open private window
-Open developer toolbar and start recording the network activity
-Load the site... it loads fine!!!!!!
-Close the window, open another private window and it's still working fine!
-Then I try again and the black version is back, even with the developer toolbar...

There must be a reasonable explanation for this! The only thing I found is that the contents that are not being rendered are inside an iframe. This is with Blink:

<iframe id="ifame_auto_size" class="auto_h" frameborder="0" width="100%" scrolling="no" src=""></iframe>

And with Firefox:

<iframe style="height: 931px;" id="ifame_auto_size" class="auto_h" scrolling="no" src="https://www.asus.com/us/support/Download/9/2/33/1/r2ZpMXIPysJOBA6U/" frameborder="0" width="100%"></iframe>

The domain is the same so I don't know why some browsers may not load that.

There is no "src" in the version you see for Blink, so they must be using a script to set it ...

How strange, it works perfectly in Opera 12.18 as well!

It seems it was Asus' fault, the page appears to be fixed now. A lot of nasty JS they have in that site. :S
