In the ongoing saga of a computer that I've taken more than a generous amount of time to fix, I'm taking another shot at it. It's not my main computer. I'm not in a rush to fix it. It just looks so sad sitting in the corner, lol.
I finally decided to replace the mobo. I've replaced the hard drive and PSU (they both went bad). I've even tried different RAM with no success. It still has the same problems as before. So now I'm going to replace the motherboard.
This is the current Gigabyte mobo I plan to replace. I didn't plan on buying another Gigabyte mobo but then I came across this one on Amazon.

The reviews are decent and it checks all the boxes. So would you pros recommend getting another Gigabyte motherboard?
For a quick review of what's wrong with it.
-Computer sometimes reset when using front USB
-Hard disk shoots to 100% and won't go down
-Freezes on start up
