I really need to build a new computer. Who makes the best motherboards these days? Back when I worked at Computer Renaissance (that dates me, doesn't it), it was Asus, but I've been out of the retail IT business for ages, and I haven't built a PC since Windows 7 was still in service. --- Minutus cantorum, minutus balorum, Minutus carborata descendum pantorum. ...

I think even cheaper MBs are generally good enough Unless you need some obscure feature. I have built many computers, with really cheap MBs and expensive ones, couldn't tell any difference. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Yellow posted... I think even cheaper MBs are generally good enoughI imagine the difference would be in how long they last. Nowadays you probably can have a MB last a really long time because components aren't upgrading at a pace that makes your computer obsolete quickly. Is a cheap motherboard going to last you 3 years? 5 years? 10 years? Anyways, I have had my MCI MB for 7 years so far and not a single problem. My last one was an Asus and it lasted around 8 years with no issue. Only replaced it because my processor was holding back my GPU, and that was back when if you replaced your processor you needed a new MB. If I want Windows 11 I would have to replace my current one, but no need to do that now since 10 is going to be supported for a while. --- My bookshelf: https://www.goodreads.com/review/list/152760030 Comics: https://leagueofcomicgeeks.com/profile/dikitain ...
