Lo peeps,

Can someone reccommend a good M/b for around 30 quid I need it rather urgently as am putting together a Pc for a friend.

The Cpu is a 3800+ AM2 with 2Gb Pc5400 memory and a fairly decent PCI-E graphics card (cant remember which one).

Anyone have any views on any of the following......

I would avoid Via Chipsets, they seem to have problems with modern graphics cards, may not be an issue now, but could be in the future.

Also perhaps look at am2+ rather than am2?
