My previous mobo was a gigabyte, I had no end of problems with getting it set up. Their website is horrible, their support is horrible, their drivers are bad. But having said that, once I got it up, it was pretty damn stable.
My friend who works in a major computer building and repair shop claims that ASUS are his favorite for stability and features. YYMV.
I went with Intel.

Case and Power Supply ordered. :-D

No Nerf, but I put a link to this very thread and I said that you all can guarantee for my purity. I even mentioned your case, and see if they can take a look at your lawn from a Michigan perspective.

They're just giving them away! Really, that money [that got sent to them] went to hookers and blow.

How long does it take a highschool dropout to roll it to the door and slap a label on it? Warehouses, keke.

I hope people haven't been able to figure out how to roll a rectangle.

Agreed. FTW except if you get the one with the super shitty sound, then you probably will need a sound card. I am having trouble finding which one it is. Im pretty sure its one of the ones with built in Wi-Fi. |

Well yeah. They all have shitty sound imo. I have the wifi board, and it comes with onboard optical ports, which is nifty. I disabled it on the first boot to BIOS :)
ASUS did have the best onboard sound evar with Soundstorm, though (nForce2). Not sure if there were other manufacturers using that.
Finally, gamers should use EAX anyway. Only thing holding me back was lack of optical surround outs from Creative, which I have now.

No Sky,
There is one of the Asus boards that has MUCH worse sound than all the others. Not sure why, but they basically skimped on the onboard sound. Im talking like HORRIBLE sound.

I think my board actually has on-board sound. I have no idea if it sucks or not, as I have never used it.

Graphics card dropped in price - heavily: Sapphire Radeon X1950XTXIn fact, if I didn't know better, it just dropped $100. And the link on the first page doesn't work. Edit: Just noticed I was in Lord Beta, my bad. Edit 2: That might be a sale. |

Well. Generally speaking, I prefer more I/O slots of all types when I can get them.

I should get back to nature, too. You know, like going to a shop for groceries instead of the computer. Maybe a condo in the woods that doesn't even have a health club or restaurant attached. Buy a car with only two cup holders or something. -Signe

Well, let's stay on topic. Cheddar might need help mating the motherboard with a daughterboard.
