Title: Hardware: new motherboard
Post by: Tovenaarke on August 27, 2008, 10:06:15 pm

Hello!

You may notice I was a little bit inactive ingame... Well my PC crashed... (how? no idea  ;) )
I'm planning to make a new one (who's much much better).

You can see in the attachment ( .doc file) which parts it going to be...

The only problem is... WHICH MOTHERBOARD / MAINBOARD ??

All the parts are from pixmania.com so it would be very very helpfull if the suggestions came from the site...

Thx!

(price: as lowest as it can be, but with good quality, so I think around €70-80)

( :ps: as sooner you help me, as soon I can come back ingame)

I would recommend you :

If you aren't in for the NEWESt video games, i advice the Asus P5N - MX, Wich costs in belgium around €40, Has SATA, PCI - E 1.0 , S775, DDR2 (2 - slots ) .. Its very small so really not the gaming motherboard..
If you want better stuff, try the Asus P5QL , wich has PCI 2.0 and is of course faster than the other , 1.0 motherboard...
Price is around 70- 90 Euro's for this thing ..

Now if your from antwerpen or so... I would advise to take a look at www.drac.be .. Its cheaper than the overall prizes..  Just Pm me if you want to know more about the information i just gave you, i can detail it better or give other suggestions.

I will  ;) Thx for the info you already gave... I look up for some more... I'm more from Gent, so Antwerp is a bit far for me  :D I hope I can buy all my stuff on the site pixamania.com , its cheap and handy (Deliver at home).

P5Q is newer, more expensive. P5K is good enough for your E2200, and you won't notice the difference. Maybe there are some more connections ons the P5Q, but I don't have time to find out now.
