Out of those four choices, your best bet would be to go with ESC Elitegroup. I've done some research and they have lots of mobo's. They have for like 5 different chipsets and there's over 100 different mobo's

Here's their website:

Out of those, no. I've build systems with all of them at one time or another for various reasons. They are not brands that I would pick outright. I would stick with Asus/Gigabyte/DFI/EVGA and some Foxconns boards.

I might try the ECS though. I see they often have high ratings.

Thanks guys!

how about Foxconn?

Foxxcon uses a nvidia chipset. I think EVGA makes some of those brands.

I agree with stanglehold, stick with Asus/Gigabyte if you can... the Gigabyte EP35 is a great mid-range mobo ($83 on newegg) if your looking in that price range

Foxxcon uses a nvidia chipset. I think EVGA makes some of those brands.

Foxconn makes boards with nvidia/AMD/SIS/Intel, with all chipsets. Its the other way around, pretty sure Foxconn makes all of EVGA and XFX motherboards.

 

[Machin3]

yeah your right.

I would say Biostar is the best out of those 4

I wouldnt go with any of those,they are very cheap and doubt they would last long.

ECS Elitegroup
BioStar
Jetway

However Asrock,are part of Asus i think,ive never owned one of their boards but Asus make gerat boards.

if your looking for a cheap but decent motherboard i would look int the MSI range
