Hey all,
Kind of a situation here, I've been waiting for Conroe to come out for quite some time, but I just can't wait any longer, my family needs an new computer, and I've been tasked to build it.
I have everything but mobo, ram and cpu. I've decided that I'm going to buy a motherboard that supports Core 2 Duo now, and put in a cheap Pentium-D to hold me over. Then I'll slap in an E6600 when I can get my hands on one.
I know that there aren't many motherboards out now, and I'm prepared to pay for what I need (around $200 or less preferable). Whatever board it is, it needs to support a Geforce 7900GT KO, as it's sitting next to me still in a box right now...
In short, I've been looking at this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16813127004 and need opinions if it's quality or not, if not then what to replace it with, will it run well with Penti-D and E6600, and perhaps ram suggestions if anyone would like to.
Oh yes, and overclocking capabilities are important as well.
thanks alot guys
