Best brand of mobos imo thjough currently I am not running one atm I usually look for Gigabyte mobos first.
Brilliant motherboards and the customer service support is amazing. Currently got a GA-Z68XP-UD4 and a Z77-UD5H
I'm a fully fleged Gigabyte convert now. Time used to be I wouldn't touch anything but Asus, then had a brief fling with MSI. GB only these days!
Only gigabyte seems to have sated my need for a good motherboard- not since the days of aBit and their uGuru motherboards have I actually been happy with one.
They have some great boards and some horrifying ones. GA-EX58-UD5 is an awesome board, still going in someone else's machine currently. They've definitely bucked their ideas up in the last 5 years. Massively!
p55-ud3 for me and I love it. will recommend Gigabyte to anyone. Same with their GPUs had a 460 now running a 670 lovely little beasts
Well My GA-X58A-UD3R survived my Corsair H50 ejaculating over it! Gigabyte always going to first choice for motherboards.
I agree! I've been using my Old GIGABYTE 7VT600-RZ in my current rig for more than 9 years and it's still working fine! I'm amazed! (I know I'm due to an upgrade, but I'm only 16 years old, so money is an issue). Please excuse the crappy quality. It's a 4th Gen. iPod Touch as camera.
Been using my Gig x58 ud9 now for some time. I have to say its been amazing (kiss of death), and cant say i would change it whilt the 1366 is holding up well. Im tempted to change the nb block on it, as its not the best design, for the ek waterblock, but not keen on the bad design of that waterblock peeing about trying to hold spacers in place. I dont want to break this board, as i say its been bril. However its survived the odd watersplash from messing with my loops (whilst powered up), where other items have not. ooops Also i was Asus, till i got this board and will be using it till i have to get rid, then will likely get Gig again anyway, if they come up with the goods.
Whilst my GIGABYTE motherboard is still going strong after more than 9 years, my RAM is broken. I keep getting RAM errors and BSODs. And my PSU isn't looking too good as well, seeing my OCCT screenshot where the CPU Frequency went from 1,8GHz to 3GHz to 2GHz. Don't have money for a new pc though :/ Well, the quality of the board has been outstanding, and I have loved it to the end! Greetings from a sad Ninja.
