I can't find out what would make this a bad motherboard, I'm trying to run a Phenom x4 processor 2.5GHz and I wanted a motherboard with a decent graphics card "onboard" that way I wouldn't have to upgrade until later. I need an inexpensive one (under $150 preferably) and I was wondering if someone could review this one:

If that one literally sucks then please suggest another one, thank you so much for you help

I'd go for a 785 board in ecs, gigabyte, or asrock. They run about $80 in micro atx format and some have free shipping. Jetway has very little support on their website; I had no trouble with one years ago, but spend a little more if you plan on keeping it for awhile

I've used many ECS boards, like more than 10 less than 100. only 1 bad board.
