    Personal choice I suppose.

    From my point of view, every asus board ive used has been rock solid and very nice to own. Gigabyte boards however ive found to be an absolute pain, poorly soldered and junk that ive had to replace once (the only time I made that mistake) and then countless times for customers.

    Its almost garaunteed when I replace someones dead motherboard, its a gigabyte board.






    Everybodies individual opinion, but gigabyte would be in my IT hell.
    Compaq A910em: T2330 dual core 1.6Ghz, X3100 384MB GPU, 160GB sata HDD, 2GB RAM
    Gaming rig: Asus Striker II, Coolermaster GX 750w, E4600 @ 2.4Ghz, 2.5GB RAM, Zerotherm FZ 120, 9500GT 1GB
    Server: Mac mini running W23k Server - 1.8Ghz dual-core, 1GB RAM, 1x80GB, 2x500GB externals + LTO1 tape backup

    I gotta vote for a tie for you guys -- I have only used ASUS and Gigabyte the last 3 or 4 years and have been happy with both. No problems at all in over a dozen builds.

    I am pretty excited by the ASUS $29 USB3/SATA6 card though.
