Anyone who still buys Mobo from this company derserves it at this point. No amount of bios updates is gonna fix the issue.

I've always just grabbed ASUS mobos and haven't had any problems. I've only built a few computers so my experience is limited. The first PC I built I picked ASUS because it just seemed to be well rated and had some features I wanted. Since then I just went ASUS because "thats what I got last time and it worked fine." Not the best reasoning but that's where I'm at and haven't had problems. I don't mess with bios stuff too much but their interfaces and options seemed to be pretty good too so it SEEMS like it has some flexibility too.

I always bought cheap-ish Gigabyte mobos because I never bought into CPU and memory hype and they all work fine with midrange components. Even my A320 board from like 2017 that I now use on a second PC still works fine to this day.

A higher core count CPU might be better at multitasking while doing something intensive like shader compilation. I don't personally notice this issue on my system, but I'm also not really doing anything during shader comps beyond watching a video on my other monitor.

I've actually never had any Mobos fail on me despite every single motherboard brand having <4 stars reviews of people swearing that the board is defective and every brands forums being flooded with posts about how awful the board is. The reality is when people have an issue they're going to post about it, more so than the other way around. I'm not saying people should mindless consume, but I stopped worrying about which board might be the most reliable and just pick the one with the features I need and just send it.

someone figured out you can do matrix multiplication on a GPU, and that you can do a bunch of that multiplication to make a program write coherent sentences using statistics.
this means that anything with a chip in it will never be cheap again.
