    Oh yeah, about 15ish years ago they were highly regarded and their products were awesome, but over the last ten or so years they’ve gotten progressively worse, it’s disappointing and sad.

      Yeah, I built my first PC around 15 years ago, and most people online recommended Asus or Gigabyte:

      • Asus - high quality products and support
      • Gigabyte - dual BIOS so you wouldn’t need support

      Today, I mostly buy ASRock because they support optional features more often, such as ECC RAM and compatibility for newer AM4 processors on the OG x370. They were considered trash when I first built PCs, and now they’re pretty good. I guess Asus is the opposite now…
