Hi all

I've decided it's time for me to get a new motherboard, as my 965 is getting old. What boards/chipsets would you recommend? Or do you think my current board will last longer?

kthx

EDIT: I'm on a very tight budget, so cheaper boards are a preference.

Hey bud.

That's the UD3P, it's widely regarded as the best s775 board ever made...it can certainly handle that chip, and anything else you want to throw at it for a much lower price than other competition. People can hit 500FSB on it, the chipsets run very cool, and there's a good layout of expansion slots. The rebate makes this a very competitively-priced board as well. I hope you like it!

Now if only I could find a place in South Africa that had it for that much...

EDIT: Just looked for local sites selling that board, and all of them have marked up the price by about R1000 or about $136.25

fail. *Sigh*
