Hi everyone, A friend of mine asked me today if i wanted to do a deal on an intel I5 and i will probably end up needing a new motherboard as the one in the i5 setup is probably crap.
It will take a long time to save up for some new parts but i would still like to ask for some info on a good but reasonable priced mobo, I don't realy want to spend more than £80 to £100 and i would rather not have a asus due to nothing but bad luck with there stuff over the last few years.
I will also need some DDR3 as this pc im typing on only had DDR2 so i can't use it in the new setup if i do make a deal with my friend.
I still need to have a look at the I5 system before i make any choises as im not sure what intel I5 cpu is in the pc and it needs to be as good or better than my Q6600.
I will be overclocking hopefully so any mobo i buy needs to have good options for that
Any info on DDR3 and a good mobo will be very helpfull as i have not had any experiance with the new intel stuff. Thanks in advance
p.s at a guess i would say it will take me at least 2 months to be able to buy everything so the most important part i need first is DDR3 ram but i have no clue what to look for hehe, and i dont want to spend anymore than i need to on ram and 4 gig should be enough.
AS buying online is not that easy for me i will probs get the parts i need from here.
