how do u find out the socket type of ur mobo? i might be buying a mobo from this guy, and i want to know if all the stuff on my mobo would fit on the guy's mobo.

Here is the link to the mobo's specs and stuff.

i would get a Abit IC7-G motherboard. cheap, and OCes like a mofo

only time there is tax online is if you order from a company based in the state you live.
