[OC3D Poll] What motherboard manufacturer shall you be siding with this time around?

[MadShadow]

Why is EVGA not included in the poll?

Its not a very popular motherboard manufacturer, and has way less experience with motherboards than for example ASUS, Gigabyte, and MSI.

Lol, no votes for Biostar. Do they even still make boards?

But BioStar are?

lol, exactly! haha

 

[Feronix]

To be fair, Biostar are nothing special but they make some great boards for HTPCs. I mean cheap boards with nice audio solutions.

I remember I almost bought a Biostar board for my build in the z77 days. That TZ77-XE4 looked absolutely gorgeous with some G.Skill Ares RAM. I mean look at it

 

[MadShadow]

But BioStar are?

Well no, but theve been around for a long time, so maybe some people could have been interested? In dont know, didnt make the thread

ASUS is my main go to lately, but their boards look so ugly as well. I don't know about going with them this time around. I think I'll go with whatever looks appropiate... I think.

Tried all those famous brands. Now I'm going for something that worth my every cent. Biostar it is.
Their new Z97 looks pretty cool.

That just looks like a cheap Asus knock of mate.

ASUS, maybe MSi, on what will probably be X99. I'm pretty paranoid about motherboards having issues but hopefully they'll last!

Appreciate the feed back fella but this thread is 3 years old now.

i'm in the market for a new board and keep switching back and forth from MSI to ASUS...before I decide

I am thinking of going the Gigtabyte X870E Aorus Xtreme AI TOP but cant find to many reviews on it. Does anyone have a link maybe to OCD review on it or something with a build and testing cheers.

There's no review for that motherboard on this site.

This shouldn't have been discussed on a decade old thread. If you had questions, a new thread would be better.

It's not considered good forum practice to revive old threads unless the topic discussed is exactly what you want to know about.

Since this is an Intel Haswell thread, it isn't exactly relevant for an AMD Ryzen/AM5 X870 motherboard question.

(I have been forced to delete some posts here. Folks, there is no reason not to be nice here.)

Since there is no need for further discussion on this thread, I have locked it. As this is a pre-launch Haswell thread and those CPUs are over a decade old (yes, I now feel very old).

Discussions on new motherboards deserve their own threads. If PC building advice is needed, Forum users will be more likely to respond fully with new threads.
