hi guys.,
need recommendations in buying a new motherboard, .. budget catagory ,, thinking about coupling it with E5200 and probably a 8600GT or 9600GT. was looking in 3000-3500 INR (say about 50-60 USD) range. have looked at Gigabytes P31 mobo GA-P31-ES3G ..
so any recommendations for a motherboard in this range.. wud be overclocking .. so please lemme know if there are issues with the mobo when overclocking .. i.e. if it hits the FSB wall too soon or .. with memory dividers or with PCI x bus locks. thanks..
also i was wondering if E5200 would bottleneck if i use it with 9600GT ?

Hi,

E5200 will not bottleneck 9600gt. As for the mobo, Ive seen several people with good OC results on that gigabyte, it has good reviews too.
