Through the what I've learned the last couple of days, I have scrapped the boards I was looking at. I'm starting over and would like some recommendations.
I want a board that is no more than $120.
These are my specs:
Win XP PRO SP3
No Motherboard
Intel Core 2 Duo E4300
Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro
Xclio GoodPower 500w
ATX PSU
IBM 80Gb HDD
IBM 20Gb HDD
2Gb (2x1Gb) G.Skill PC2-6400 Dual Channel DDR2 CL4.4.4.12 2.0v
KAF2 Geforce 9600GT
OC 512Mb PCI-e Video
I want an
ATX board, a board that will
OC well, and it can't have PCI-e 2.
hopefully 3 PCI slots and [I know, I'm asking to much!]
2 IDE connections.
I've just had this Asus board recommended, haven't had time to look it yet. $85
