LGA775 board, that can take 16GB DDR2 800

[philjayj]

Hi, as per the title, I'm after a fairly cheap motherboard, which can take an Intel Q6600, and 16GB of DDR2 800 RAM, or greater.

I don't really want to spend a small fortune, tbh, a second-hand board would do us just fine.

Any suggestions on make & models would be appreciated.

Thanks

The cost wont be in the motherboard, but in the 4gb sticks of ram. Unless you already have the 4gb sticks, you're likely to find that X58 with 12gb is significantly cheaper. A bit less ram, a lot faster processor. Still not particularly cheap.
