Hi all,

I purchased a 845GL.....of hell poor quality :cry: :cry: around 3-4 year back. Though its for P4...but is using a P3 RAM 133Mhz SDRAM!!! Recently...128MB RAM got corrupted....as these RAM are real costly and about to obsolete, I'm planning to change the whole motherboard itself. I've 2.0AGHz processor...can you guys...please suggest some nice motherboard, with good features.

Thanks

if its a pga socket one, go for the best one - 875 or 865 if onboard.

Go for ASUS or MSI (not sure) but not intel if u need to overclock or need more performance (obv. all need :p)

Mercury too is good and cheap :)
