Tyan are as rock-solid as it gets. Supermicro are also very
good, but IMO they come second after Tyan.

If you're looking for cheap mobo's, Gigabyte is a nice
choice. Asus seems to be fine too, but my personal
experience says against them (very loudly in fact). Abit
was great a few years ago (I still have BE6-II with 200-300
days of uptime), but they have their issues now.

So stick with Tyan if you want stability and stick with
Gigabyte if you don't have enough money.
