So it's time for an upgrade, and I'm pretty sure I'm going to buy me a Intel Core 2 Duo E6850 "LGA775 Conroe" 3.00GHz (1333FSB) - Retail
...BUT...
To fit in with my new home cinema aesthetics (PC hooked up to Samsung M86 52" LCD TV), I want to put it into an Antec Fusion Black HTPC Case - 430HE Watt PSU
...SO...
I'm having a hell of a time finding a Micro-ATX motherboard that will support 1333FSB.
Any of you experts out there have a recommendation?
Possibly I might be going for the wrong CPU and you can even advise a 1066FSB Core 2 Duo that would do the same job or even better.
Perhaps an AMD instead? Although having taken the time to read more than enough reviews, it seems the core 2's blow the AMD's away!?
Anyway, over to the pro's as they say, and many thanks in advance for your input.
