AM2 motherboard needed for X2/Phenom system

Loque · 12 Oct 2009 at 16:25

Ok, i've just sold my primary computer, so im left now with my secondary machine, which currently has a DFI SLI-D board, 3500+ A64, 2gig DDR400 and an X1950Pro.
I have a brand new AthlonX2 4200 (i think) and a brand new Phenom 9550. One of which I would like to put to use in this machine, but I need a decent AM2 board first. I have no problem with buying a second hand board from someone. So what should I be looking for, for around the £30 £35 mark?

Cheers.

well i was looking in the b-grade section on the site, and theres a couple in there around the £35 area. Im just wondering which boards are better than others (for slight overclocking etc)
