New motherboard help

[robgti]

Hi all im currently using a Q6600 cpu on a MSI P7N Diamond board but now that i want to have a internal wifi card and tv tuner card the P7N has to go. I have been running the cpu at 3Ghz so would like a board which could overclock quite easy and have enough PCI slots for sound card, GPU, wifi card and tv tuner card.

Budget at the moment is £50 unless i can sell my P7N first then it will be more. I was planning on building a HTPC but most of the ones i have seen use a MATX board which i think is a little too small for me so would just be looking for a ATX board.

Any help would be great thank you

No i was after something else. Managed to get a J&W P45 Ultra. I dont use more than one GPU so think my current boards a waste for me

How is the J&W board performing for you i was reading up about this one but was warned away as the bios was meant to be a pain when overclocking......cheers james

I have just finished fitting it and have got my Q6600 up to 3.4Ghz with no problem what so ever. Just upped the FSB and voltage and that was it

Really every other person i know of that has had it had issues getting this kind of oc, can you link me to where you got the board as i had a link for it at around £88 but can't find it. Id be intrested in trying one out now.....cheers

I bought it off AVforums for £50 posted. Been at that clock for about 2 hours now and no issues
