Can anyone reccomend the best bang for the buck 1155 board for a 3470 non k? Thought about an oem dell of something along that train of thought but they say the front panel connectors are proprietary
 
Not only are the FP headers proprietary, so is everything else on the board.

I got an Optiplex 3010 motherboard to mine with and every connection on the board for fans, power buttons, USB ports, etc. is proprietary.

If you want a Dell motherboard, you may as well buy the entire machine, you can get them cheap enough on Ebay.

Thanks for the info thats what i was afraid of i was given a all the parts from a buddy of mine that upgraded a bunch of parts and the only thing that didnt come with the oarts was a mobo. Was hoping to get something cheap but well worth it to just buy an 1155 mobo
 
If you snoop around ebay, you can usually get a good deal on boards like that. Every once in a while there will be off lease or blowouts and you can get a decent board for $40 or so.
 
Thank you both wound up getting a deal on a 4590 so now looking for an entirely different socket.
