I need a motherboard recommendation for my ex-girlfriends computer.
No overclocking except raising her fsb on a 2500 barton to match some 3200 ram.
Need onboard sound and nothing else.
Dual channel would be nice but not 100% necessary since I've heard that it only raises performance ~3% (she would live with the 3% loss if it saved a considerable amount of money.)
Also, since the fsb is only going to be raised from 333 to 400 would the stock heatsink/fan provide enough cooling?
Thanks
