Hi,

I'm looking for a montherboard that supports the following processor with 4GB of RAM:

Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 2.66GHz 1333FSB Socket 775 4MB Cache Retail Boxed Processor (From eBuyer)

Click to expand...

Basically I just need a basic mobo to support the above processor plus 4GB standard RAM (DDR2 would be fine). I also need integrated GFX (64/128mb would be fine) (pref. nvidia)

Any suggestions on which one to go for?

Thanks folks!

sounds like you're not planning on overclocking. Probably any name brand P35 or 965P based mini atx board would suffice. (msi, gigabyte, asus, abit, biostar to name a few)

Thanks splat....nope, not planning on overclocking...its mainly for server/network usage.

do I have to get a mini ATX or is that just a recommendation?

Thanks

Just been looking at a (what I think is) rather nice mATX one....the Fatal1ty F-I90HD

Linkie: http://www.overclock3d.net/reviews.php?type=3&id=186&page=9&desc=abit_fatal1ty_f-i90hd_motherboard

Looks pretty much what I want Basic board with a GPU + support for 4GB RAM.

If anyone knows of a cheaper one could they let me know?

Thanks again guys!
