    Replacement motherboard

    Need to replace my current motherboard:

    Gigabyte P35-DS3R

    Network card has failed

    I have a Q9400
    4Gb (4x1GB) Corsair TwinX XMS2

    Any suggestions, not into heavy overclocking or hardcore gaming.

    Cheers

    Re: Replacement motherboard

    Buy a cheap PCI / PCIe network card, which will be a lot cheap that a whole new motherboard? If it's only the network that's gone wonky it might be a better bet.

    On the other hand, if one part of the chipset's going wonky it might not be a bad idea to replace the lot... how about an ASRock P45 motherboard?
