Hi

So my motherboard died a few days ago and I need a CHEAP replacement. As this is for my old computer, I don't want anything fancy ideally I would like to spend a maximum of around £70. I just want to get the computer up and running again.

If you have any suggestions please let me know?

Many thanks :)

Solution
It's Micro ATX and will be compatible. Your cpu is the k version which allows for overclocking while this particular MB does not. If overclocking is important, look to a Z77 chipset.

Hi

Ive had a look on Ebay, can you conform if this motherboard is compatible? Will it fit into my case and fit my components? I don't know if what I am possibly buying will actually work with my components.

Thanks!

This is the motherboard
