well it's that time again, yes i've got to get a new mobo. Because apparently my computer peed on itself(LOL). no but really, my water cooling sys started leaking from the cpu on to the pci express slot down below it. apparently it has possibly fried my mother board it also took my 8500GT with it that was in the slot. now i dont to know what to get as far as mobo but any suggestions would be nice.
budget is around 150-200 max, give or take a little,
must be compatble w/ a pentium D 940 and also hae room to go to quad core which i will be doing sometime in the near future
now here's the tricky part i dont know if i should go with a single pci-express,save some money and space,or 2 for SLI not crossfire.
now is pci express 2.0 backwards compatable with 1.1
if i go with sli then i want a board w/ pci-express 2.0 but can you find one for about 200
ok thanks
