i currently have a asrock 4core sataII and running a e6750 underclocked because the board does not support 1333 fsb 2gb of el cheapo ram and a his 3850 gfx card.

what board would give me the best options to utilise what hardware i already have

thanks in advance

If your still running DDR1 your using the only board that will support all your hardware.

If its ddr2 just grab a decent brand P31 board, like the Gigabyte or MSI one.

raid?

CF?

for a budget i would look at the ocuk IP35 pro and forum member kenofstephen for help with the MB if problems arises, he works for the company resposible for the board and knows his stuff with it

have looked at these boards and was considering them but wasnt sure of the support. i did start reading the thread on the board which gave me more confidence in them.

thanks for the info will definately keep it in mind
