More Information

I'm new to the "build your own" club, but would like some
advise on a Motherboard. I've read all the reviews and
found that there is no perfect MB. Knowing that, I'm now
interested in MB support(may needed it). I was leaning
towards the Soyo kt266A dragon +, but after visiting their
website I was convinced that they are more OEM focused.

So, among the following, which manufacture(s) provide good
support (via tech support, website quality, and software
upgrades)?
Epox
Iwill
Asus
Abit

Thanks.


Currently I have the following for my new build:
Antec SX830
512MB DDR (crucial)
WD 1200BB (got this for $99.00 using the Blue Card)
TDK 24X CD-RW

I've had experience with abit support; 1 rma and 1 bios chip replacement. A little slow, but otherwise ok. Epox is also supposed to have good support, but no experience from me.
