| Captain_Yuri said: As hixxy said, I wouldn't worry too much about Ram compatibility. The QVL goes both ways anyway. While Asus may have not tested the memory to work with their motherboard, Gskill tested the motherboard and made sure their memory works with it: <SNIP> As for going with Asus or someone else, personally for mine I still won't go with another vendor cause my build fits around Asus but yours might be different. Personally I don't like Asrock all that much nor do I like Gigabyte. My only real alternative to Asus would be MSI but more of a brand and ecosystem thing than anything else. In your case, I'd just go with Asus and call it a day after you update your BIOS. |
Yeah, I agree Asus is the way to go.
They typically push out firmware updates more often and for longer than other manufacturers and generally have better (And more) software engineers.
Asrock Taichi though... Is stupidly hard to argue with that value, the last Asrock board I had lasted probably 10~ years with the integrated graphics core clock tripled 24/7. - Every feature you could imagine, Asrock probably has a board for that.
Keep in mind that Asrock used to be a a part of Asus too, so there is that aspect, I would like to think both brands benefited from that.
Gigabyte I can't stand the vdroop issues their boards exhibit, I would rather drop a toaster in the bathtub than have another Gigabyte board.
