Which is better, ASUS, Gigabyte or MSI?

The four kings of the main board: ASUS, MSI, Gigabyte and DFI (Diamond). DFI used to be mainly engaged in European and American markets (sometimes the quality is better than that of ASUS), but now it is mainly engaged in OEM. So the three first-tier companies in China are ASUS, MSI and Gigabyte. It's hard to say which is good or not, because the chipsets at the same level are similar in materials, workmanship and performance.

Generally speaking, ASUS is characterized by its strongest design. There are many humanized designs, not only reflected in the bios, but also in the details of the motherboard. For example, the M5A99FX Pro motherboard with a thousand yuan has an improved memory slot, and the latest precision die is used on one side of the clamping foot, and the clamping foot cannot move, but there is a stainless steel hook inside. In this way, when plugging and unplugging the memory, you don't have to break the card feet on both sides, just move the card feet on one side. Gigabyte and MSI.

Secondly, ASUS motherboards are only above 900- 1000 (inclusive), and the materials used will be good (mainly capacitors, and ASUS motherboards below 900 mostly use Taiwan Province-made capacitors; Gigabyte and MSI 500 and above will use some Japanese capacitors). At present, the high-end motherboard is the player country series of ASUS, and Gigabyte and MSI are both worse.

MSI is also good at design. For example, the materials are very particular, and many parts are used skillfully and exquisitely. There are many technological innovations, such as Dr Mos power supply technology. However, MSI's motherboard design and color matching are relatively calm and "low-key", not as "cool" as ASUS and Gigabyte.

Gigabyte once had a nickname "King of Stacking Materials" in the circle of enthusiasts. The design emphasizes color matching and aesthetic feeling (especially between 2005-20 1 1 year). I don't want to say more about this. If the motherboards of ASUS, MSI and Gigabyte are used more, you will feel the characteristics of "king of stacking materials". Gigabyte's "X times copper" technology in recent years. Adding more copper in the middle of the motherboard will reduce the temperature of the motherboard by 10-20%, which is a bit of a gimmick. In 2009, I used Gigabyte M720-US3 and 770 motherboards, and the North Bridge chip was very hot, so the double copper technology was useless.

However, "king of stacking" is not a derogatory term. It also means high cost performance. For the same specification, Gigabyte's material is "fierce" (especially compared with the capacitors used by ASUS and Gigabyte, it is larger or more).

As for quality and stability, they are all the same. In terms of shipments, Foxconn and Elite can rank in the top three. Because of the large amount of OEM, Foxconn only OEM motherboards for Dell and Lenovo brand machines, and its shipment volume is higher than that of Gigabyte.
