Money is an object here  :P :P and it's better than ASRock  :P
At the cheap end, I'd probably go gigashite...

...but the system is all imbalanced - 'big' numbers on cpu and memory, but the most important part (mobo) is shite

Only built around 20 gigashit based systems, so can't make an accurate judgement.  Loads more ASUS failures, so thats why I'd never use them.

I have found as long as you don't buy the cheapest ASUS it works fine, and if it fails they replace without question which is important in the world of budget shite

You've been lucky - I've always been referred back to retailer, and if it was intermittent fault, got nowhere as expected.

Irrelevent now, as I don't build so much for others - no money in it now, so only close friends and family now.  For businesses, I now just ram in Dell/HP machines

Very good reliable standard machines, but no fun.

I agree on the office desk that you need good standard repliable machine.

Dell business is good and reliable

Dell  domestic not so good

Example motherboard from friends troublesome domestic Dell
