Re. Axiomatic

Please tell us at The Inq more about that story, what was the problem and solution, not to forget the "support history" :)

ASUS support... never heard of it...

I have had both brands motherboards and they both are capable of making decent products. I think the real clincher is that Gigabyte has at least adequate support whereas ASUS support is non-existent.

Don't get me wrong. I think ASUS actually makes the better boards. But don't expect help from them when something goes wrong. I just experienced this with my brand new Striker II Extreme.

It took some excellent work from the OCZ techs who manufacture my memory to fix my issue. ASUS would not lift a finger to help.

Very unimpressed with ASUS, to the point that I will avoid them on my next PC build.

I like Gigabyte

I picked up a x38 Gigabyte motherboard and it works great. I also bought a ASUS eePC and it does good too with XP on it.
I like them both, hopefully they will both jump on the band wagon with the Flash Linux on all their motherboards. Watching Microsoft sh*t it's pants would be great.

Walk with giants just might get stepped on.

This year ASUS has sales of about 4.5X in the first quarter and a little more then 5X the total sales of all the others put together. I bet they are just a little pissed off at their loss of market share. Maybe they should just start selling products as good as ASUS and stop the BS. Go nail them to the wall ASUS.

Calling eachother Differnt.

ANYONE.(Named Tom).
tom drashekFirst don't Asus make gigabyte stuff? Its constant outpouring of Mains that makes leader, asus, while best of most, Esp ROG, seems to have Stalled for awhile. Gigabyte moreso.

Probably all best Top mains will continue to be Asus. However all small stuff is just assumed to be there, it does make difference, yet NO one item is going to steal show.

Think:
20K Maromnies (named for inventor of THE tomistor) for calculator, 200K for Ms.Thomas Pacman+, 2 million for Texttoming arpanent2. 20 million for K7 XP tomputer 200 million for X2 TomCom , 2 billion- Next big step, Ultie_Tom Step & Whom Does that engineering Gets Crown in synthetic & specific testing. COULD BE ANYONE (Named Tom)

Spat between Asus and Gigabyte boils over

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
