Hello!!

 

I'm hoping you guys can give me some ideas.....

 

I need to build a PC for my mother in law. She's only going to use it for Office, Photoshop and browsing the internet. Basically, i have a Q6600 knocking around plus 8GB of DDR3, a 500W PSU and a case. I need to find an M-ATX board to go with all this! If I can find one, then obviously I won't need to re buy all the components! 

 

Any help would be appreciated!

eBay is about as good as you're gonna get.

 

Unless you happen to live in Shinjuku, in which case it's a 17-minute ride to Akihabara. Change from the Chuo line to the Sobu line at Ochanomizu and get off at the next stop from there. Then leave through the Denkigai exit and go to the backstreets and hit all the Used stores you see until you find a 775 motherboard.

But that's not likely to be the case, so... eBay.
