gigabyte or asus are the top two brands, from what i understand.
My order:
Gigabyte
ASRock
ASUS
MSI <---My first build was a MachSpeed (MSI rebrand) and it served me well.
MSI is the best!
And how. I had two Asrocks fail in 18 months. Never again.Asrock and MSI, you really need to check the boards out. They can make some really good boards, but they are known to make some really flakey boards.
This and EVGA boards
