Hi,

I was going to get a msi motherboard(z77a-g45), but then I saw all the complaints and issues with them not working etc.

Which brands would you recommend that have a good reputation with reliability.

i do like asus myself but i would not look down my nose at asrock, gigabyte or MSI.

not every manufacturer is perfect; there are bound to be DOAs or new boards that are released with a flaky BIOS. i also avoid reading reviews posted by morons on a sites like new egg; most couldn't tie a shoe w/o falling down. i read reviews, if available, from reputable sites.

I actually saw all those negative comments on newegg haha I will do more research on the board cause in my budget that board would do perfect.

Whats your take on the z77-g45?

you hit the nail on the head; it a very inexpensive z77 motherboard. i see it on new egg for less than $100 (after the rebate)

i have seen this and the asrock z77pro3 get suggested for budget builds on this forum all the time w/o anyone coming back complaining. i personally wouldn't hesitate getting one if that was the budget i had.
