Motherboard advice
Posted: Fri Nov 09, 2012 11:06 pm
Hi,
I have always had a tendency to use Asus 'boards. Their BIOS
invariably plays nice with BIBM.
I have had bad experiences with Gigabyte. I just could not bet the
bugger to be stale or boot up at all...and I had 2-3 replacements
until I jumped ship to Asus.
With my latest Asus 'board, the integrated peripherals have failed one
by one. Luckily, add in cards are cheap.
What are your preferences when buying motherboards? Of course, I
bought an Intel 1156 CPU just before they became obsolete, so it will
have to be a new CPU when the time comes. Support as regards BIOS
updates is important.
Thanks in advance.
