Motherboards

[Tom Wroblewski]

I use ASUS mobo's  all my builds for years without one problem, then again I may be the lucky one.  My most recent Sabertooth mobo is excellent, with AMD FX-8150.  
Before discounting any manufacturers boards, read the reviews on Newegg and Tigerdirect first.  Easy way to see how a  board rates.
