avoid ecs at all costs, their mobos are crap

i suggest sticking to gigabyte or abit made mobos, as those are better overall anyway

Not all ECS boards are crap, that one has a Northbridge fan so thats one plus.

FYI, for all computer parts you should buy from Newegg.

i mean to say that the reliability is crap

i have used ecs twice now, and both mobos were bad the first time i tried to intsall then, then after i got those replaced they had various problems(one had a bad ide channel2, another had the third ram channel go bad, and the cmos would just clear itself at random, even with a fresh battery)

im sure others can list their problems with ecs as well, they are shit and should be avoided
