Ok so not so exciting as the title ;)

My Asus A8R32-MVP Deluxe Motherboard has blown, not sure what else has yet as I've nothing to test the rest of my gear in. I'm replacing the PSU because it's a hyper, have gotten my hands on an FX60 (for FREE!!!!) and am investing in a better cooler. I can find the a8r32 for sale, but not the deluxe, would it matter?

Current spec:

2GB Gskill Ram (DDR)
ATI 1800xt Saphire
Lian Li case of some description
500gb WD SATA
FX60 x2
Usual optical drive gubbins.

So could you guys spec me:

A decent mobo replacement, overclocking not really a big must.
A good, quiet cooler for less than £35
A decent, tidy, quiet PSU that doesn't cost the earth (modular and braided would be lovely).

Cheers for retro speccage guys :D

Ant :cool:
 
Personally i would take the opportunity to upgrade to a AM2+ build rather than spend good money on a outdated rig. A FX60 would make a decent sum on the bay which could go towards the cost of a new mobo/cpu/ram. You could get a AM2+ mobo, Athlon ll dual core and 4Gb of DDR2 for £160.
