RE: Motherboard Problem



I think you are being somewhat un-realistic at 10 years....
 
The biggest weakness seems to be capacitor breakdown, therefore research boards that use the highest quality capacitors from mainstream manufacturers.
 
I have run a range of "good" makers and I have found them all to be stable for years....FIC, Gigabyte, Asus, Tyan. To be honest just pick a board that does what you want in terms of features, buy 2 and store one carefully if you are that paranoid. Get a good online UPS that will isolate your power supply ie one that reconstructs the sine wave, and get good quality PSU's, these will effect the running of your server far more than the board quality.
 
Motherboard reliability is probably the least of your worries.....
