I'm repairing a nice box that burned up a 3.2Ghz BE quadcore. Being sent to me. I bought the cheapest AM3 chip that would run in the MB which was a Sempron 140 to get to the bottom of the box's problems. I have a new 3.4 quad core BE 165 I will install in it when I have gotten to the bottom of what's wrong with it.
In the meantime I've got an old 939 box with a failing EPOX 939 board in it with a Opteron 165 in it OC'd to 2.8Ghz. Thinking of throwing a cheap motherboard in it and OCing the Sempron to 3.7Ghz with both cores running. What is the cheapest board anyone can think of that I could use to replace the 939 board with the OC controls I will need. Love to buy it used unless very cheap new.
