From what I could gather I am a member at overclockers and it seems it was memory problems more then anything else, I would not worry about what 1 person says, I mean no matter what you buy your going to have someone somewhere with a problem, and its the other way around also, not because one guy uses it that your going have no troubles. I would not worry about any big name brand more or less than any other, but I do think its important to look at their updates, some companies have terrible websites, where you have trouble finding what you need, and some companies just dont put out updated bios's very often.
