Custom builders that use Gigabyte MOB's??

IGBT

Not that there is anything wrong with Asus MOB's but can't find any custom builders that use Gigabyte. They all use Asus. Can anybody recommend a Gigabyte builder??
 
www.directron.com
is a custom build shop as well as a seller of computer parts.

They have some systems listed that use gigabyte parts. I have ordered a few parts from them. They would probably sell you something like bare bones system or a motherboard combo or a full system, assemble it or just test parts like hard drives and power supplies. They are not as large as newegg. Most of these custom shops charge just a little more and are not that friendly to people that overclock and damage parts and then expect a refund.

They dont sell ASROCK last I checked.

Not looking for a game box. I want a high reliability general purpose box.
 
In my experience using Gigabyte boards they're pretty stable. I've built a handful of systems using their product, and only had one I had to RMA. They aren't the most feature rich but aren't lacking either. I prefer MSI boards now for features and reliability. I don't use Asus anymore. To expensive. Back in the day I was Abit promoter and they were all I used. Sadly, they're gone now.
