Cheap Mobo Wanted

[Mephisto_Helix]

Let's start over .....


My mom's mobo fried tonight, it doesn't get anywhere once switched on, no bios nothing. Anyway, I wanna get a cheap, like uber cheap replacement (money is very tight). It was an ECS P4M890T-M2 so anything the same is fine.

Any info would be appreciated and if you have an old one or know of someone that has one, lemme know

Much thanks

That deal on the Asus is not available anymore.
I guess your memory is still DDR2.
Go for the MSI Intel G31TM-P21 R380.44
The ECS G31T-M7 also retail around R356.62

I'd be careful of the cheapest boards.

My dad got an asus one, and it always says CPU not supported when he turns it on.

He's tried every way possible to flash the bios, but nothing worked.

So just make sure you're not paying for future troubles with your cheap mobo.
