its a new build but its very low budget i found this motherboard for dirt cheap ... and was thinking of getting one of the older gen 1.86ghz quad core processors for it. its still a very significant upgrade to the current system my daughter is using (kinda ran low on birthday budget to build her new computer) i have the case power supply ram hd just need motherboard and cpu which im trying to do for about 40ish lol (unexpected bills suck lol)

the 775 chipset was the best i could afford on my very tight budget and this seemed like a good option she was on a pentium 4 2.0 ghz so this is a huge improvement i was looking into just getting a core 2 duo processor but i can actually get the other a little cheaper and its a quad core and i can invest in a little more ram that way

I have the case(its a custom ATX case), PSU (that is more than sufficient purchased for a different build some time back and has been laying around), I have lots of ram laying around (i build repair computers for a living), and of course HDs the only components needed were the motherboard and processor which im aware are older but is a significant upgrade to her current setup which is a pentium 4 1.7ghz just wondering if anyone possibly knows if these are actually compatible cause the site that manufactures the board has no information and i dont know where he got the information if it is actually compatible then i will be able to pick up her components today to make sure i can get them delivered and setup in time for her bday any help would be greatly appreciated
