Today its that cheap you can avoid 2nd hand.

How much total can you afford to spend ?.

Theres an Asrock one, the P4VM900 I think its called.

unemployed so not a lot

not many better agp cards are available second hand so pricey buying a decent new agp car ie sapphire x1950 agp around £100

so im thinking if i can get a p4 cheap mobo i can look out for a decent pci-e card thats a good upgrade from my 6600gt.

prolly hoping to get a mobo for £20 and a second hand gfx card for £60 although i have more money i kinda need it, just bought a 22 " monitor.

Yep my landlord recently got it and it works brilliantly, not sure about the overclock though.

Its based on a VIA IGP chipset so its unlikely to overclock far.
