Worst mobo company of all times...

My ECS board has been running fine for a few years, so I won't pick that. On the other hand, I've had 2 MSI boards fail on me before.
 
Can't say...I've used most of the above other than ECS...just never really appealed to me. All the others though I've liked, or at least haven't minded.
 
Hmmm.....

Had an Abit that ran flawlessly...eventually killed it after 8 straight hours of video encoding, running a chip way faster than it was designed for (2.2GHz...fastest Tbird chip = 1.4). No problems there.

Have an ECS, bought used, works great...

Have a Gigabyte, with annoying little issues...proc. speed doesn't show up right on boot screen, other little things here and there.

Gigabyte ftl.
 
I've used Asus, Abit, MSI (a few times), ECS, Epox and Gigabyte. I had to send back an Asus, Gigabyte and an ECS. The Asus and Gigabyte suffered from newtechnologyitis and/or poordriveritis. The ECS also suffered from these but I couldn't get it to work with my setup at all so I vote ECS. Asus at least gave me help via email and newegg upgraded my board to a later rev after I suffered with it for a couple months.
 
MSI. damn boards always broke on me. ECS boards are great! great value, and the one I have installed @ my parent's home is still going.

I don't see PCChips on that list...by far the worst ever.

ECS is the "elite" division of PCChips. Which is, yes, by far the worst ever. Yes, some people have good luck with them, but overall they are the worst.

Same here with MSI boards, just bad luck.
 
wrong forum (Its all right guys I understand...its ok to say wrong forum to me TWENTY TIMES when I make a thread like this in off topic...but czech...🙁)
 
PC Chips by a LONG shot.

ECS is second with its hit-and-miss mobos.

If I have to buy a cheapo mobo I'll look at Biostar first instead of those two.
 
ECS is pretty bad. soyo's actually was the most expensive boards when i built my computer (it was KT333 back then), soyo's were more expensive than asus.
