Hardware (Motherboard) Reliability?
Socket 939 Motherboard just failed. Looks like some exploding capacitors ...
Haven't researched motherboards in years. Used to be ASUS and Gigabyte were reliable manufactures, but seems their stuff is just as cheap as FoxConn?
Is there a reliable manufacturer of motherboards (Brand?) and who does the best job?
What would be an economical replacement / upgrade motherboard / cpu / memory?
Say for 1) $50, 2) $100, or 3) $150?
Looking for opinions on good hardware. Have never owned ECS, but have a ASRock. Looked at Biostar, MSI, and PCChips?
