I've never heard of the Sapphire brand. Asus is a major manufacturer and although I don't know that motherboard, I would recommend it over an unknown brand. I'm using a Gigabyte GA-MA785GM-US2H with my Phenom II and am quite happy with it.

You might try posting questions about the Asus in the forum here for that brand.

There's no guarantee that a new motherboard will fix your problem. The parts to consider, at least, are your motherboard, processor, RAM and power supply. Even if the new motherboard fixes the problem, it may still be present and appear again.
