So my trustworthy RIVE board is finally giving up the ghost, I'm getting continuous BIOS resets, overclock fails (not overclocking), randomly won't POST (black screen), often won't detect PCI-E devices, OS locks up etc etc

It's had a stressful life, over-volted to its limits and then doused in coolant when a hose came loose, then washed in the sink with DI water and baked in an oven...shamefully not joking. This was all some 4+ years ago so I'm amazed how well it's held up, props to ASUS.

So looking to replace it without having to buy new RAM & CPU to boot if I can help it, can anyone recommend a board to fit an LGA2011 (not the 2011-3!) CPU? Only requirement is 4x PCI-E lanes, one at x16 for GPU the others can be x4 or less.

Looking to spend around £200 at the most, preferably around £150. If you happen to have something we can sort a sale out in the MM.

Thanks in advance!
