let me know where i can get the msi mobos cheaper the better. also which model number am i looking for? i wan to hook up the external cooler i know i dont need it but i really want to have the fans and mini radiator(i know i dont need it). what are some good cooling setups called,make/model? i guess used is a bad idea with a mobo?? wha keys do i hit to see the screen with all my system info?also i have done power supplies and drives but never a mobo is it pretty easy,and do i need another compter to do the swap my only other comp. is a peice laptop:(

Toss the board and get into an MSI mobo. you wont be let down. Its cheap and great! I love my MSI! ppl do tend to overdo it and there are a lot of needless hardware for what ppl use it for but its so fun!!

Id say get a new board and processor. Maybe add some ram and your set to surf like a champ. As for gaming, you could get an 880gts really cheap and it will hold up with the best of them.

the system it s self will work. but you need to make sure it has all the cpu variations (fittings) with it other wise you will need to buy a new block as well.
