Hi Guys,

I have an AMD AM2 socket motherboard from Winfast, i think number is N15235, and its broken. I need 2 IDE connectors for master/ slave twin hard disks and two optical drives and I have two sticks of DDR2 533MHz RAM and a 6000 series Nvidia graphics card. Can any of you recommend an inexpensive motherboard?

Most of the ones in the shop they just have one IDE connector and I wasnt sure if the sata to IDE connectors would work well or not?


Thanks


Rob

Take your pick the onboard IGP of the Asus and Giga boards may probably perform better than your Nvidia 6 series card. The Biostar uses half the Sideport memory so if you want to use the IGP get the Asus or Giga, but if you intend to use your current GPU might aswell get the Biostar.
