Looking For DDR3 Intel 100 Series Chipset Motherboard + Tips On Dell Inspiron 3650

Hey there,

I'm in the process of trying to move my Inspiron 3650 to a new case, similarly to what people were trying to figure out how to do on this forum post.

However, I didn't notice that someone had mentioned that when I used my new power supply, I'd need an adapter for the strange Dell stock motherboard. Now I can't finish my project, and I'm honestly not even sure if the motherboard will fit in my new case (standard mini ITX/ATX).

So, I'm on the fence of just buying a new motherboard instead of messing with the old one. However, I can't find any Intel 100 Series Chipset DDR3 motherboards for a half-decent price!

Looking for one ~60 or less, any suggestions are appreciated and I'm more than happy to clarify if needed.

EDIT: Sorry if this is in the wrong section of the forum, really only me second-ish time using it. Still pretty new to how it works.

That's fortunate, though only a few motherboards allowed it. Given that this wasn't exactly top-of-the-line DDR3 RAM to begin with, not going with the newest platform in order to be able to re-use archaic RAM is awkwardly short-term planning.

Actually, I have DDR3L memory, which runs at 1.35v. My problem is I just can't find a motherboard in stock which is compatible with both.
