Need Mobo for OC e7200

[abhijith]

I am planning on buying a new computer this month. I've decided to get an e7200 as my processor. I need a good budget mobo for <100$. The lesser the price the better. I want to OC it to 3.2GHz. How much watts should my power supply be? Will I need any extra cooling? Can I leave the OC like that 24/7? My main priority is casual gaming. The mobo doesn't need an on board video card. Thanks in advance

Go with a P43 or a P45 for a motherboard. 3 examples

go with 2x2 GB of DDR2 800 1.8v RAM

Your power supply will depend on your graphic card choice. In most cases for an decent gaming card (9800GT, HD4850) a quality 450watt and above power supply is fine. You might be able to get a 3.2 overclock on stock cooling, but i'd use an aftermarket cooler, a 3.2 overclock should be stable and left on all the time. Check prices on the E7300, it may be the same price as the E7200. This article for the $625 system builders is a good build.

I don't have a 64 bit OS for the support for 4GB RAM + Video memory. So I'm going to stick with 2GB RAM + Video Memory. I am planning on buying an entry level graphics card for casual gaming like the 9400GT. Which Graphics card do u suggest? Should I OC the graphics card too? Sorry for asking too many questions..... . I am still an amateur.

Asus P5q-pro. Simple to OC. P45. Crossfire. What else you need?

P5Q deluxe if you can afford it or the Biostar Tpower IP45 for max FSB's get good quality RAM though... i HIGHLY recommend high performance RAM or RAM that has a rep for high ocing for an e8400 due to its (relatively) low multi..
