Hello,

I want to go with a Intel Duo.. probably the E7400.. I need compatible motherboard and 2-4GB memory and I want to stay as close to $200 as possible. On newegg.com I found this:

Newegg.com - CORSAIR XMS2 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Desktop Memory - Desktop Memory

which is 4GB memory for $34.99

and the CPU:

Newegg.com - Intel Core 2 Duo E7400 Wolfdale 2.8GHz 3MB L2 Cache LGA 775 65W Dual-Core Processor - Processors - Desktops

for $119.99.

Now what is a decent motherboard that will work with these and is around $50 or less?

Thanks!

Any g31 board will work fine. Newegg has them open box starting at $27.99 plus shipping. I suggest a biostar, as they will ship you a backplate for free. Nearly all open box boards come with no accessories. A few may have the driver cd.
