neddamttocs Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 Hey All: My house had a powersurge the other day and blew out 4/6 of my usb ports ... so now i am getting a new motherboard. Would This One be good? Its gonna cost me ~90$ CAD. Any comments would be appreciated ... my limit on a board is about $100 so that limits eveything ... -Scott Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest FxXP Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 For a $100, you could get a board with a more functional 865PE chipset. Skip the useless 848P. I found the A-Bit IS7 for $96 at Newegg. http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc....-127-155&depa=0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

neddamttocs Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 (edited) thanks, any recommended models from MSI I have a Celeron w/a 400 fsb so another limiting factor EDIT: yeah im in canadian dollars, and i dont have a creditcard or paypal to order from a site so reccomend something and ill see if a local store has it... thanks and sorry for the misunderstanding EDIT2: i can get the IS7-V2 locally... not the same though ... how about this one .. http://www.newegg.com/app/viewproductdesc....-127-174&DEPA=1 Edited April 12, 2005 by neddamttocs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Silenc3 Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 No one can read? CAD dolla, meano le cheapsa dollarsa comparada americana, anyway. Gigabyte or MSI will do fine, just make sure its got the 865p chip. You wont be overclocking on a $100 board. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
