WOF: How much did your motherboard cost?

$299 just to be defective, then $599 which my **** of a friend ruined by breaking the Liquid cooling system.

LOL@ Kyosuke. Someone paid too much. My trusty ole' EVGA 680i LT cost me a mere $120 3 years ago.

Only $120. I'm saving up for a Donkey Kong arcade machine so I can't afford those expensive $300 boards.

Just got a ASUS Rampage III Formula for $299 @ NewEgg

My current motherboard set me back me back $60. Although, local dealers have recently lowered the price to $50. The reason for the board being so cheap, is because the FSB is choked almost like a nuclear core; always bottlenecking. But the PC itself was used as an N64-emulator platform, so we didn't notice any difference.

Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3R for $100, well worth it

$88 on a ASRock P45DE after an older 775 Asus board got fried. When i'll be moving to Core i ore Core i 2nd gen i'll think about what to invest into.

ASUS S1366 P6T. Cost $240 AUD ($218USD) January 2010. Has three PCIe 2.0 x16 slots, so pretty future-proof. Rest of specs are in profile.

MSI G31TM-P21 = U$S80 aprox. $310 argentinian pesos that time... now it should be cheaper. Pretty good deal. It's enough for me, since I've not expand the RAM yet. I'm buying +2gb to dual-channel and a 5850 or 5830 when my financial situation gets back to normal, pretty soon indeed. I'll keep my system spects up to date

Gigabyte EP45-DS4P -about half retail price ($NZ150/$US100) bought from a business that was halfway through an IT upgrade when the recession showed it's teeth w/ Q9400 (after 8 or 9 Q9400/9550/9650's managed to find one that that would OC 30% on stock VID )
Primary system (presently on loan) Gigabyte EX58-UD4P- received as a gift, but at the time of purchase would have cost around $NZ470 (w/ Core i7 950 and 6Gb Crucial DDR3-1600).
Both excellent boards.

Asus M2N-E ~$120 3 years ago Socket AM2. Just dropped in a Phenom II X4 945 in it. still going strong.

Gigabyte P55A-UD4P, about 215 AUD. Extremely happy with it, helping me push my i5 760 to a good 4.0ghz under 1.3 vcore

Only 40 euros. I was stupid back then(2 years ago).

Asus M2A-2MX(Mobo); Athlon X2 5000+; Asus DK EAH4870; 2x2 GB DDR2 (some cheap kingston); *very stupid* Sweex 600W PSU; Samsung Spinpoint F1 1TB

I paid 150€ (190$) for my crosshair III Formula in what was a bargain (for Europe) and I'm extremely satisfied.

GA-MA770T-UD3P I bought last autumn (september/october), counting in dollars about 100$. A bit less than Athlon X4 I've bought together with. And it's fun, becouse it still costs the same at my country (im from Poland). The only difference, 620 model is replaced by 630. But now my mobo is "an old generation", and isn't cheaper at all

I have an Asus P5QL PRO which isn't an expensive board at £60 but its at least quality its lacking firewire and esata but those are both things I don't use, but it left me with extra money to spend on better ram and a Core2Duo E8400

Bought an Asus P55 Pro cost around $190 last year, great mobo no problems so far. But the most expensive thing is my dual XFX 5770 in crossfire which was $320.These are in PCIe x 16 @ 2.0 x8 mode and I also have a Asus GT240 for Physx on PCIex16 @ 2.0 x4.
