can someone please recomend a barebone that will go with an Intel Core 2 Duo E7200 Wolfdale 2.53GHz 3MB L2 Cache LGA 775 65W Dual-Core Processor

thanks
 
We need more information, what do you want? do you want a just a barebones computer such as one from tigerdirect.com or a shuttle or what?
 
- Also what's your budget?
- What do you need in that barebones? PSU, RAM, etc
- Why a barebones?
- What are you using this PC for?
 
i already have memory, and drives. i need a psu. i built a computer previously but only has one connection for hard drive but i have 2, so i need a barebone that will fit 2 hard drives, in addition to a dvd drive. i would like just a barebone. i have bought one from newegg but unfortunately it was set to 230volts and blew up. i sent that one back and now i want to see what is available for the e7200. the one i had ordered from newegg seemed really small too. these are the ones i have previously messed with.

do they sell anything on pricewatch that will allow an e7200 to fit?
 
You might want to take a look at this barebones:
Shuttle KPC K45 Barebones kit - $100

The Asus ones all have piss poor PSUs. In fact, most barebones have crap PSUs. Hence why I asked why you really needed a barebones.

Not for the rig the OP is planning on. In addition, Shuttle PSUs have a reputation for handling high loads for long periods of time. I haven't seen any PSU testing to confirm it but meh.

Oh and I made a major mistake: The PSUs that comes with those Asus barebones are not crap. My bad. Thought those PSUs were Delta made, guys known for making crap PSUs. Turns out the OEM of those PSUs is Delta Electronics, makers of a range of decent to extraordinary high quality PSUs.
