    new motherboard?

    K, i'm getting a new motherboard, wondering which one of these I should get.
    Keep in mind i've got an AMD 6000+ dual core (which is an AM2 socket). I'm staying away from Nvidia chipsets and would like only an AMD chipset. Price range is $100 (before shiping).

    Flip a coin ... I don't see any difference (other than color and a few $$) between the two. If one offered solid caps or a better cooling solutions, I'd recommend that, but it really is a tossup.
    I am currently running an MSI 650i board and an mATX Gigabyte board, and have no complaints with either.

    Good to see AMD is still represented every now and then. I my AMD Black Edition 5000 .... its been running at 3.2 since I popped it in my el-cheapo Asrock board.

      Wow, that was the largest pain in the arse install i've ever done. I just got the gygabite board, but the old Nvidia NAM drivers didn't want to come out.... so I had to manually remove them from the registry, and then load up the AMD NAM drivers.

      NEVER BUY AN ASUS MOBO AGAIN!!!!!!<--- Note to self.

      edit: forgot to mention that the Nvidia NAM drivers was causing windows to crash, so I actually had to go into safe mode to "fix" the issue...

        Glad to hear it's up and running Seiko. I'm installing my old AMD Asus motherboard into my sisters PC tomorrow.

          Now we have had a lot of flooding in this area and there are still a lot of houses that have not been repaired. Must be the apocalypse.
