Hey guys!
Speccy says my motherboard is overheating (122°C). I'd like to replace it but I have no idea what I need to know / take into account.
I'd figure I need to know the new motherboard is compatible with all the other components of my PC and with the case. How do I figure that out?
Speccy gives me "G11CD" as the model of my motherboard. That is the model of the PC sold as a complete, ready-to-use unit. How do I know the model of my motherboard? And, how do I know if it is full ATX or Micro ATX?
Is there anything else I need to think about before buying a new motherboard? I feel lost and can't find a lot of information online.
