My vote goes to DFI because of their OC features.

I'm good for either ASUS, MSI, or DFI. All great boards, great features, and great packages.

I chose DFI simply for their motherboard features: pcb, uv reactive components, features, overclockablility (including voltage options), package (uv cables / software / manual / etc).

I really like the innovations ECS and Asrock are coming out with.
I remember I used to have a ECS K7S5A wich was one of the best seller of its time.
I had it before it became popular and all so I don't know if the newer versions of the K7S5A were as good...
Now I have a Asrock 939 Dual SATA2 wich I am very satisfied with.
I used to have a AGP card (x850 pro unlocked to 16p) and then got a PCIe videocard and with the mobo I could use both AGP and PCIe wich is very cool if you plan to slowly upgrade your computer and don't have a big budget.
Now I am waiting for the new AM2 proc.
Anyways I know there are better quality boards out there but I always managed with the cheap ones.
The only board I had that was a little more expensive was a MSI that half assed supported AGP 8x with a cheap VIA chipset.
Thats when I told myself screw it i'll stick with cheap baords

Asus, MSI or DFI for me. I used any DFI board but they are the best when it comes to overclocking. Asus and MSI are alittle easier to work with since their bios settings are so complicated.
