Motherboard?
Hey!, I'm looking to purchase a new motherboard my budget is around £100/$183.74
I was wondering if people could recommend any motherboards, or know of a good one to go for?

If I expand my budget will it make alot of difference or is £100/
$183.74 ok to spend on a new motherboard?

Thanks!

Re: Motherboard?
What type of CPU (Intel Pentium 4, 3.2GHz Dual-Core), Hard Drive (e.g. a 160GB Serial ATA150), RAM (e.g. 2GB PC3200) and Video card (3.g. GeForce 6800 256MB PCI-Express) do you have?

Any other computer parts, like Soundcards installed?

You need a motherboard that is compatible with those things.

And you know after upgrading your motherboard you'll have to reinstall Windows.

Re: Motherboard?
Thanks nylock10, I was kinda going to go for the whole package (Motherboard, ram and cpu)

I would still like to keep my GeForce FX 5200 128MB PCI-Express card
