Historically I've had a the highest failure rate with Gigabyte main boards. They're increadibly suseptiable to the slightest power surges, don't like being turned off without a "proper" shutdown, and while I've not run any tests, the bus seems to be slower. I'd go with Soltek if you can find them, and Asus on the other side. Rick To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
