My PC stopped working several months ago, and I found out it was an issue with the motherboard. I'm looking to get a new one to replace theold motherboard, I was going to get the same one but I have no idea weather its out dated, or if there's a better deal for one that's compatible with my pc. If someone can send me a link to one that's around $50 or so that would be even better. I appreciate any responses and advice!

Solution
With a $50 budget for a board, your going to want one of these: http://

Yes, it is outdated. But unless you're willing to spend hundreds for a new platform, I'd suggest just replacing the board... if you're sure that is the problem.




awesome! thanks for the response. I think I'm going to get this one from your link

I have a question though,it has 2 options for the boards
-FM2 with GA-F2A68HM-H
or
-FM2+ / FM2 with GA-F2A68HM-HGA-F2A88XN-WIFI

whats the difference? And are they both compatible with my build?
I appreciate any help
 


Awesome, I'll just get the normal. Thank you for all you're help I'm going to buy this one now!
