Hi, ive tried to get an answer on so many forums. no one ever replies, PC Specialist cannot help either so this is my last place of trying before having to fork out for a whole new PC. Basically I need a replacement motherboard. My specs are below. Can anyone recommend one that would match please. :)

So my PC started giving 3 beeps and wouldn't boot. 3 beeps signalled a problem with the RAM. I bought 2 new RAM modules, no difference, tried everything and now only option is new motherboard but I don't know how to buy a suitable replacement, I will also be replacing it myself. My specs are below, can anyone guide me to a motherboard that will work please?

Its also possible that its actually a H510 as I remember they changed it at the last moment, thanks

Thank you everyone for your reply's. Yes I did try all combinations of RAM scenarios but no difference. Im not too technically minded and will be replacing the motherboard by myself, hopeing its just a case of unscrewing/unplugging bits and re assembling it. I took a look at the motherboards suggested byph123uk. All motherboards look the same to a newbie like me. I was thinking of just getting the first one suggested ( the Z590 ) and hoping once replaced it will all magically boot up. What pitfalls am I not seeing with replacing the motherboard. Ive not done anything like this before :/ and thanks for being an active forum :)
 
Hi, so thanks for all your reply's. I wont be looking to upgrade the PC in the future as its over powerful enough already. As Pastymuncher suggested an identical mobo, this would be my plan but I do not know how to find an identical one as if I could then that would be my number 1 choice. Can anyone assist with an identical mobo? If not then ill get the Z590 and load up on thermal paste and Youtube videos :)
