Hi all

I looking for a motherboad with the following specs to update my spare comp.

-Micro ATX
-Socket 775 (To run a Q6600 B3)
-AGP x8
-DDR2 PC6400
-IDE HDD/DVD connectors

Does such a motherboard exist and if so will it be expensive as i dont want to spend a fortune on it?

The only ones I can find micro-atx and AGP are DDR boards.

The DDR 2 seem to be SATA and just have one IDE port.

Thanks for looking

I have however just found one

http://www.asrock.com/mb/overview.asp?Model=4CoreDual-SATA2&s=Intel

This seem to do everything i want

EDIT: Ah rubbish it might not be Mirco ATX as there are two measurments

ATX Form Factor: 12.0-in x 9.6-in, 30.5 cm x 24.4 cm

Wouldn't it be easier to get one with onboard VGA (assuming you don't have an uber AGP card)?

AsRock are your best bet, however they don't do a mATX board as you describe afaik.

Which leaves you with

Upgrade to DDRII + PCIE
Upgrade to DDRII and use mobo with onboard graphics
Get a 939 Chip.
