Xeon E5450 best modded 775 motherboard?

Hafidh Ishafiq · Jan 30, 2017

I know u guys will recommend to use updated system (etc. 1155, i7....) but im just into this old system/rig. Currently i have Xeon E5450 & MSI GTX 960 4GB. Any 775 mobo that are the best or benefit my Xeon with DDR3 slot? I'm interested with nForce 790i SLi but I also wanna keep the budget not too high (the nForce is quite a price these day). Whats your suggestion? And please don't recommend me to upgrade to newer system :no:

sure thing

I understand I have a Q8300 775 myself

but the thing is... Xeon E-5450 is not LGA 775 it is LGA 771 as per intel http://ark.intel.com/products/33083/Intel-Xeon-Processor-E5450-12M-Cache-3_00-GHz-1333-MHz-FSB.
and 771 boards are like diamonds... good luck finding one to start with and finding one that does DDR3.. pfft

assuming you have one of this 771 to 775 thingamagigs on your CPU, then there are 775 DDR3 motherboards (hard to find, but here is one)

but having a hard time knowing if your modded e5450 would run on it

I'm sorry forgot to inform that i modded my right now mobo (currently using GIGABYTE GA-G41M-COMBO), now i'm looking for a better 775 mobo. Modded mobo have been tested here http://www.delidded.com/lga-771-to-775-adapter/3/#motherboard-compatibility-table
