I assume you were talking to me and not Rob. I am still considering the A7N8X because it's simply more advanced than the one Rob suggested. I've never heard of ECS, I have heard of Asus. But I have testimony on the reliability of the ECS board.

I really want a very reliable board, but I don't know if I can sacrifice as much as I need to for the ECS one. The major downside is that the Asus board is twice as expensive.
