Are there ANY solid M/B's out there?!!!

[VAPOR X]

Hi, have been searching motherboards for days. I started shopping by price under 200.00 but that's a lost cause.

Checked hundreds of reviews on dozens of sites. Could not find ONE of any brand that didn't have at LEAST 30 percent complaint/RMA issues. Many as high as 50 percent!

Just to simplify, I want the "Lexus" of motherboards for an i5-3570k. Buy it, plug it in, and replace it in 4-5 years.

Please help, thank you.

Did you check out the Asus Sabertooth Z77? Its well made with a 5 year warranty

I agree the Asus Sabertooth z77 is solid as, Im using it and it has never ever given me any problems even when overclocked. It is a good quality board and comes with plenty of features.

Yes, I did check that one out, especially for the warranty. But it seems that Asus has tons of complaints also, more so with the customer service than the hardware if there is an issue.

Maybe the problem is too many features. Is there more of an industrial board without all the crap?

If it would run one SSD, one SATA DVD, and a PCIe video card I would be happy.

Thanks for the response!
