Asus ..Gigabyte..mobos..reliability issues

Asus MBs seem to run a pretty wide gamut from excellent quality to poor/fair. Seems they don't have good QE/QC. So its hit or miss with them. You either get a good one or a bum.

Someone on Tom's site agrees...Indicates that Gigabyte mobos are more reliable.

Hello there!

I'm just trying to help somebody based on my experience. We've been selling hunderds of Asus 34 Speeds in PC's and there were NO reports of vibrations, the opposite is true and they are fast!

Asus motherboards? They may be fast but they are not as reliable as they were three or four years ago. We have in fact stop selling Asus mainboards because the mainboards that needed repair were at a level of 8-10% (compared to Gigabyte less than 1%!).

You recommend Pioneer? Well, the error correction of that CD-ROM player isn't very good, in fact it is awful and it surely is not as speedy as the Asus. And stop shouting at anybody who just might have another opinion than you. Your making a fool of yourself for nothing.
Next time, do me a small favour and don't reply at all.<<
