I recently bought a ram stick http://www.ebay.com/itm/261488310647?var=560369349767
I thought it was going to fit my vostro 200, but it turns out it doesn't :(
So I wonder is there any AMD (since the ebay page says it only fits for AMD) motherboard that is under 50 (or 60, if there is a significance different).

I have few question for AMD motherboard, what kind of cpu do I use? (i assume the type of cpu available is based on the socket?)
What I want in the motherboard:
1. Support up to 8gb ram (16 gb if possible, but doesn't really matter)
2. support duo/quad core
3. can build with a cheap case

DDR2 memory was phased out in 2009 in favor of DDR3. The label on the RAM shows it to be Kingston Value RAM.

This hardware is available on eBay as you won't find hardly any new motherboards at regular retailers.
