Hey guys, my computer is an HP i bought it last yr and my mom said I could do w/e i want and get parts for ti since i broke the warranty >:] My Stock Hp: 3800+x2AMD 1 gig ram 250HD ----------- I added a 7800GT and well I'm looking for a nice motherboard to attach all that to my limit is 120$$$USD don't need SLI so that should help u guysin ur look. Thx and if u could find me a nice set of 2gig(1gigx2) ram sticks
omg that is a hawt pc why need to buy a new motherboard.. Well its your wish your PC will own more! Dunno rates about motherboard
well because, the Gay Peice fo crap motherboard that ocmes with HP has Bios locked so I cant overclock the CPU and well I want to Put it ina new custom Case with LED's the stock Mobo wont let me do that. so yea

yeah J-DUB, DiabloDj1 is right, even getting a decent set of 2GB for $125 is near impossible. So if you pair that with getting a mobo as well you are pretty much up a creek with out a paddle my freind. If you are just talking about a mobo I could recommend getting a gigabyte DS3, but that will run you close to $150. Just keep in mind that I don't think that you can find a set of 2GB ram for $125, so you might have to lower you standereds or get some more money. Also if you can get spend the money to get a new mobo now and save up again to buy you ram that would be the best. The ram companies are just rapeing you on the prices now, so if you could wait for about 4-6 months to get ram that woudl be the best.
Do you got a decent PSU? Is this socket AM2 or 939? If its 939 either of these: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductCompa...N82E16813131517 I heard DFI were good for OCin I think? Not sure how they are And I know Asus is pretty good overall, I got an A8N-E if its AM2.. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16813131022 A good Asus one or this MSI one - but I'd go with Asus cuz they seem to be doin decent, dont hear of many problems from them. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16813130049
Yep. I got the same cpu as you (which easily OC's to 4200 speeds you know...no voltage changing or w.e needed..) and I got the a8n-e which is the same as a8n-sli minus a pci slot and i think 2 usb's or something small like that, almost same thing lets say.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16813136152 DFI ultra-D fairly good performance and if the need shoudl arise, you cna covnert it to an SLI board with some cunductive ink. how'd you break the warranty though? opening a case and doing upgrades shouldn't invalidate any warranties if you live in the US.
probably have a s939 cause its a hp than your gonna have to upgrade to ddr not drr2 which is better so just get a asus board or something
well am2 didn't officially exist 1 year ago so yeh... i had a 7800GT and an DFI ultra D myself and i like it. i had an opteron 165 over the x2 3800+ though
