Ehhhh iono. From what I've read I already hate Foxconn as a company. Looks good, but I'd rather have EVGA (which has their boards made by foxconn though lol)

Foxconn makes boards for eVGA, Apple, Intel, and I am sure many many others.  However, searching through the vast amount of information to dig through it all is exhausting.
 
There are really only a few different board manufacturers.  Many of them remain unnamed and are found somewhere in China.

Their issue with Linux was pretty messed up. I think i might get this though now that i think of it. Seems superior toEVGA in the specs. Same price too

I don't think they can match Evga in quality or customer support.They're relative newcomers in the enthusiast level area.The board itself looks good,but looks aren't everything.

Making a board using designs someone else created and tested and making one you have to design yourself from scratch can be a whole new game.I think I feel more comfortable banking on one of the well established manufactuers.
