Hello! I am trying to make a small upgrade to a friend's computer. They needed a better processor, they were using a sempron from the stone age, and upgraded to a phenom I. Their motherboard couldn't handle more than a single core, and so it too must be upgraded (ooops!). The budget is 100$, which must include at least 2 SATA and 1 IDE hookup, as well as 2 DDR2 slots. This is well within reason, however, I cannot seem to find many AM2+ boards that don't include integrated video cards. I imagine you could overide it by disabling it in the device manager, and use a seperate GPU, but I've never bought a CPU with integrated video before and have no idea.
