    Now what is it you want....

    Upgrade or New Computer:
    Replacing Parts

    Upgrade on what (you hope): Mother Board

    How much you want to spend: Preferably $60-$120

    What all you plan to use it for: Gaming (WoW) and Daily use

    What Operating system you want to use & Bit: It already has Windows

    What Country are you from: USA

    Any Additional Info Here: Computer was built by a friend who is now out of the country for a long time. Computer has been down for 6 months and I finally got some extra money to spend on a MoBo, I have another friend that is willing to put it all back together but does not want to get involved in the buying selection process.

    Also I cannot make links so hopefully that does not hurt me. I also did the best I could, I have zero computer savvy skills. Thanks all help is appreciated.

    Just curious, not putting you down or anything, but why are you replacing the MB? You said you aren't computer savvy, so are you sure you need to replace the MB? Did someone tell you it's dead? If you're sure, please disregard those questions and check out the links below for a couple of options. The linked MBs should allow you to pull all of the components off the old MB and pop them into the new. Also, you should probably buy some thermal paste for reinstalling the CPU/heatsink (only costs a couple bucks).

    No offense taken.

    My house was hit by lightning and for some reason I did not have my router connected to a surge protector and it fried everything that was connected to it.

    I appreciate the help.
