Posted March 19, 2016 Ok my current motherboard is dying,i have no idea how much longer it is going to last,and replacement boards are too much,also they are on ebay,and don't have a working paypal accound,and i have tried and can't fix it. I am in the middle of trying to sell some stuff, to pay for something to replace it and my CPU. Also a bill went through my bank account eariler than it should of my my account is overdrafted(next paycheck in 4 days will cover it). So can't order online. I do plan on gaming,but also getting into video editing and a lot of other things playing around with new things teaching myself more stuff. I plan to check my local Fry's to see if i can find any decent deals in my price range,but if there is nothing decent there are a few posts on my local craigslist that caught my eye,and am wondering which you guys think would be best for me. I will say the spare parts i already have 16gb of ddr3,a 500w and a 600w PSU,Antec mid tower case,r9 270x and 3 HDD's. Ok the first post is also the cheapest,BUT it is the farthest away and the hardest for me to get to. https://houston.craigslist.org/sop/5490915567.html I like this one because MOAR CORES lol,but the low clock speeds worry me,and it would leave little room for upgrades. https://houston.craigslist.org/sys/5486428945.html This one i really like because of the MSI motherboard and all the drive space it comes with. https://houston.craigslist.org/sys/5464858574.html This one costs the most,but has the best case,PSU and GPU of all of them ,and come with 2 screens. https://houston.craigslist.org/sys/5449074843.html It is hard to decide,what do you guys think? | I7 2600@4.2Ghz | Corsair A70 w/H100 fans | 16GB DDR3 1333Mhz | MSI Z77A G45 Gaming | Corsair TX650 | XFX R9 380 | 2x 120GB Samsung 840 SSD in RAID 0 | 2x Seagate 500GB in RAID 0 | 750GB Seagate | 500GB WDHDD + 500GB WD USB HDD | Sound Blaster Recon | Antec Sonta Case | HP LP2480zx @1920x1200 | Acer H243H @1920x1080 | BenQ EW2440 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully around 500 if all goes well,at worst as little as $200,but if i am only stuck with $200 i may just end up staying with my dying mobo until it give out,which could be in day weeks or months lol..... | I7 2600@4.2Ghz | Corsair A70 w/H100 fans | 16GB DDR3 1333Mhz | MSI Z77A G45 Gaming | Corsair TX650 | XFX R9 380 | 2x 120GB Samsung 840 SSD in RAID 0 | 2x Seagate 500GB in RAID 0 | 750GB Seagate | 500GB WDHDD + 500GB WD USB HDD | Sound Blaster Recon | Antec Sonta Case | HP LP2480zx @1920x1200 | Acer H243H @1920x1080 | BenQ EW2440 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
