I'm looking to upgrade the motherboard in an existing PC, currently there is a cut down MB installed which came with the pre built computer and there are no OC facilities and virtually everything else is disabled/missing from the bios, there is no bios update available to enable the facilities Im looking for (Its a Packard bell imedia x2416 computer)
I want a MB suitable for:
Processor:Intel quad core Q8200 @ 2.33 ghz (O/C potential required)
Memory slots minimum 2 DDR2 more would be better (Already have 2 x 2gb PC2-6400)
On board network
On board sound
Sata: 4 ports minimum
On board memory card readers
Graphics: already have 1Gb Nvidia 9500 GT PCIExpress
I believe the Processor is socket 775 but I'm not 100% certain, I am well out of touch to be honest, previously I was an Abit fan but they are no longer available so I need to find an alternative, as I'm not a gamer I dont need anything fancy just an inexpensive board with some overclocking facilities and any additional features that may be useful. Any help or opinions gratefully received.
TIA

. Scan sent it as a warranty replacement for an EOL Asus motherboard that died (think the P5Q).

it was only £45 as well, oh well it obviously wasnt meant to be.
