My power supply went on my emachine t2085 after 4 years,seems like the motherboard is toast, It has been kind to me,other than what I read on the forums. I want to rebuild a computer while there is still snow on the ground for the next month. I would like to use the existing tower & purchase a ASUS P5B LGA 775 Intel P965 Express ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail Model #: P5B & also an Intel Core 2 Duo E4500 Allendale 2.2GHz LGA 775 65W Dual-Core Processor. Now will this board screw into the housing of the emachine. or would I be better off with this housing, Rosewill R5717 BK 120mm Fan ATX Mid Tower Computer Case+450W Power Supply. I would like to salvage a lot of the other components on the emachine. I would like to know if the Asus motherboards are any good, I know the sellers says good things about this motherboard. I also want to know if most of the components are interchangeable, CD, DVD drives, my hard drives (Digital Western) & ribbon cable. I also want to know which tower housing should I use. I want to run my satelite TV through my Twinhan 1020a pci card. Any help on this would be much apprieciated.
