Hello!

On my previous topic, "Buying a new computer" I stated my need for getting a computer. I was told to make it myself. This is probably the first in a series of polls for finding out which parts will be best for me.

This one is for motherboard.

Please tell me which one you think is the best.

Thanks in advance,

Panarchy

ASUS is my choice.

I'm currently building a PC and have ordered the P5N-E SLI... at least i think that's the one :/ i love my wonderful memory. Anyway, if you want any reference for parts/prices you can check my thread here

Otherwise, enjoy building your computer :)

MSI has terrible quality and support :no:

Asus, Gigabyte, and abit are all great brands.

Not from what I've seen. A year ago, I had a problem with my 6600 AGP card.. sent it in to MSI, got it back in less than two weeks. No issues trying to send it back, no issues with the card after I installed it in my PC. MSI been very very good to me. Go read some reviews about them.

    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      By testman · Posted

      Nothing is stopping you from continuing with your testing cadence. If updates are released every 2 weeks instead of 4, and you test once every 4 weeks, the exact same amount of patches will still be available for you in those 4 weeks. For example: Before 4th week - patch 1, 2, 3, 4 After 2nd week - patch 1 and 2 4th week - patch 3 and 4 Still the same amount after 4.
    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!
