Hi Experts!

I'm looking for a mATX mobo for my shoebox. Just wonder any good one out there and a bit good for o.c as well. Many thanks for your help.

I'm presuming Intel? Look for a Gigabyte GA-G33M-DS2R. I have one here and it's a great little overclocking motherboard.

hi mate, dont be tempted by the gigabyte q35 chipped mobo, i got one and it was an awful disapointment, no overclocking options at all!

I reccommend looking into asus matx boards too, as they tend to overclock well.

So what kind of Asus board then? I saw this one http://www.yoyotech.co.uk/product_in...605211ae8f7487

What do you guys think? this one or Gigabyte one? or any board else? Many thanks for your help.

I saw this one Asus P5E-VM HDMI. So which one then...hmmm

This : http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/Produ...oductID=754629

is widely considered to be the best Matx board out.

If you can get your hands on one! qUite Expensive too.

I reckon you could get away with http://www.komplett.co.uk/k/ki.aspx?sku=335584 if you were on a budget, as those boards are sid to clock well too.

:stickpoke That's the board I linked Thanh55 to previously mate! It's a good overclocking board with a great price to match

[Jeddy]

oops, lol shoulda checked the thread futher back!

Komplett have it for a really good price though. I shoulda got it instead of my q35 POS.

So it mean if I get the P5E VM HDMI it better than GA-G33M-DS2R. Thanks fro yours advice guys.
