The CPU and Video card are high quality but the motherboard is horrible.

Asus is the desired brand for 99% of this board. Gigabyte is mentioned occasionally. I used to talk a lot about Foxconn but I got slapped around a little for that. These motherboard's (same Chipset) would be a much better choice than the one you had...

Onboard video specs are irrelevant when you use a video card.

Depends on how much you know about motherboards. What do you need your system to do? Are you a gamer? Wanna do Multimedia. Most important feature of any motherboard is it's reliability.
