My motherboard in my main computer died on me so I was looking into buying a new one, but everything looks similiar to me. I also dont require SLI, any ideas? The specs for the computer is: 3200+ (Venice core), Corsair XMS 1GB, 7800GT. Been struggling a while trying to choose one so any direction on this would be great. :p

any overclock? if not look at Asus or MSI. You might think about what you want for on-board sound. That is hte biggest difference between boards today.

I went looking for boards in the three that were suggested and I found:

MSI K8N Neo4-F

ASUS A8N-E

DFI LanParty UT nF4-D

Anyone use any of these boards before and vouch for them? Also Im no techie so Im looking for a decently easy to work with board. Thanks.
