I strongly agree with Stranglehold AND skidro892007, which is why i made this poll!
If i had three mobo's (and i do on the list) which had exactly the same spec and were all the same price, i would go for the one with the best reputation.
but here i have three mobos, the ECS one being the cheapest, the gigabyte being the most expensive. The question is: is the ECS board better value? because you get the same spec for a lower price? or is the gigabyte the better value board because it is a better brand, better quality?
I think ill probably play safe (and pay the extra tenner) to get the gigabyte board where i can expect quality.
