I started to look and had problems choosing a MOTHERBOARD AND CPU!!!
im so pissed off, i read the reviews at newegg for the motherboards and most were DOA, wont post, died after couple days, and other issues. The cpu should be fast enough as long as it fit in the budget and can handle media entertainment, movies, music, not much gaming. I'm looking to spend not more than $700. Anyone got any ideas on a great setup for that price. I only need some major components =p and your suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Or just give me some very very reliable motherboards and cpu..and no they dont have to be a combo.
Motherboard-?
what would be a good board to go with the cpu chip?**
