    Hi
    Can anyone recommend a decent micro ATX board that will take an E8400 or similar and DDR2-800 ram? I'm not after the best money can buy, just something that will do the job without problems. It's for my gf's PC and she already has an 8800GT, PSU, soundcard and the DDR2-800 ram.

    Would be helpful to post a few different possible models since I'm in New Zealand and may not be able to find everything locally.
    Cheers.

    I just installed a Biostar G31-M7 TE. Less than 50 bucks (us). Beware, it requires a power supply with 24 pins. The existing one i had had only 20 pins. I thought the board was bad, it just didn't have power. It is working good now. (E8400 Chip)
