Need a motherboard

Well... I need a motherboard for the specs below. Yeah you see a motherboard in the specs but cross it out. doesnt work and my warranty is expired. So I need a new one... different brand prefered.
 
onboard video isnt necessary and onboard audio im just gonna turn off anyway...
 
NF7-S (they haven't made the 1.1 revision in 2 years so you souldn't have to worry about not getting a 2.0)
 
i dunno guys... i really want to lean towards the cheaper end... it doesnt matter whether its a micro atx or a regular atx

i really only need 2-3 pci slots, 1 AGP8X slot (for the video card), socket A, and maybe 2 memory slots. anything over that is kinda unnecessary. i dont plan heavy upgrading
 
*sigh* the one that i got was 57 bucks and it exceeds my needs (IF IT WORKED :mad: ) how hard can it be?
 
why does it have to be one of those 80 dollar ones? i'd rather have a cheaper one... because whats important to me is that all the parts work (especially the video card and processor)
 
is there any important difference between microATX and ATX? ATX seems to just have more stuff on it than i need
 
what about system chipset? remember i -dont- want to overclock
 
can someone help me? look, I have 140 dollars on hand. I'll get a big one if its absolutely necessary... but u see i just dont see the need for 5 pci slots and such

p.s. i want to have something picked out tonite

Click to expand...

who cares if you do or do not need 5 pci slots... .. and it shouldnt bother you that theres a bunch of extras.. or detur you from getting a motherboard with 5 slots

here is an awesome mobo http://www2.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=13-131-478&depa=1 Like i have posted in your other post concerning the same thing

and if you have a full atx board case.. and you get a micro atx.. it looks out of place in there
 
You want to stick with nForce2, but mATX means almost anything will be IGP. Your 6800GT will automatically disable the integrated graphics, but you have to be careful you get a board that supports the 400FSB processors. Take a look at this MSI board for under $60.
