Suggest a motherboard for E8400

Hi,
I am planning to buy Intel core 2 duo E8400 (3.0 GHz). How much will it cost in KOLKATA and what is the ideal motherboard to be paired with this processor? Good onboard graphics is preferred. My budget for this combo is 12.5K.
Please reply.
Thanks

Re: Suggest a motherboard for INTEL C2D E8400

Just a single reply :-(

!!!!

Can I use GF9300 board with E8400? How much will it cost? Please reply

Geforce 9300 is worst card

dont buy it

Now I am a bit confused. Please tell me whether I should opt for C2D or get the Phenom II.

Which one would be better :

1. Phenom II 920 + AMD 780G or
2. C2D E8400 + GeForce9300?

I think both of them will cost nearly the same.

Thanks

1. Phenom II 920 + AMD 780G
