I wouldnt buy an ASUS motherboard if u paid me, for that kind of money I'd just buy a prebuilt dell xps

Saying that, without argumenting your case in anyway, is useless.

I've had numerous ASUS boards, and they are fine. ASUS P5Q Pro happens to be the wisest choice for a motherboard currently.

Dell might decent, but when you build your own PC you get just what you want.

Dell XPS >.< I would rather save cash and build it myself, but of course you probably don't have time to build one always (it doesn't take alot of time personally, the longest part is setting it up like your previous computer with all your files)

well as i work as a computer seller, i called samsung special number and asked them.
They said they got so much shit from people with this panels, so all 226bw now is samsungs own panel.

But serious i dont know, since newer samsung screens still have some shit panels. but they said 226bw only is samsung screens now ;/

It doesn't really regard that, but the panel type. S-PVA, TN, S-IPS.

Any real reason? Superior performance that of your 9800GTX+.

If it has to be nVidia, get GTX260.

idk if Hd4850 is better than a 9800GTX+ >.> though I would believe an HD4870 is, for sure of course you could just pull out the HD4870 X2 and win all ^.^

Reason why not to buy ASUS? If you have no real reason, don't post.
Parent
▼
OfficerCohen 3 Oct 2008, 14:03
if i posted then clearly i have reasons...
Parent
▼
peoples 3 Oct 2008, 16:23
Well, share those reasons.

I say ASUS is the best - which one is true and which is not?

You see, you can't just say something, you must argument your view. Unless you do that, your view is useless.

BioStar and Gigabyte are the best imo, then MSi, I don't see any reasons as to why Asus gets called the best mobo hands down always and why they charge such a high price when I am getting the same quality from lower priced companies...

Like my current BioStar TP43D2-A7 it has all the features you could get from a single slot PCI-X16 2.0 mobo with DDR2 800 RAM and was cheap as hell, its has ever feature other mobos has and posts great OC performance, I see no basis for why it is not also a great company
Parent
▼
peoples 3 Oct 2008, 21:29
That ASUS posted is rather cheap, and OC very well too. There is nothing wrong with ASUS's quality either.
Parent

peoples 3 Oct 2008, 14:00
Decent, not bad, not too good.

Quadcore? Do you have a real need for four cores? If not, a faster Dualcore OC'd serves you better.

As for the graphicscard, I answered above.
▼
panics 3 Oct 2008, 14:49
Quad core is useless unless your doing mass coding and shit, your better off geting a top of the range dual core imho.

Maybe consider cheaper mainboard and gfx card cuz haxes aint cheap these days.
I've had trouble with high-end ASUS mainboards.
