As far as the boards P35>G31>GeForce 7100 Link to comment https://forums.steam-gamers.net/topic/4061-new-cheap-compy/page/2/#findComment-42044

It posted first try for me, OC's like a champ, and had everything I needed in a budget board. My only 2 knocks against it was it only had 2 slots for memory, (so if you ever wanted 4Gbs RAM, you would have to by 2x2GB sticks, instead of 2 sets of very affordable 2x1GB sticks) and it only had a place to directly plug 1 case fan to the mother board. A simple adapter allowed my other 2 fans to work, but it was a bit of a nuisance. Long story short, anyone of those boards should be okay. Oh, and if you are willing to anti-up a bit you can get a Q6600 Quad Core for $200. Be careful though, I haven't tried this CPU in any of these motherboards, so I'm not sure its 100% compatible. It should work, but sometimes things are a little screwy. Also, this is OEM, so no cpu fan is included. If you are with in range of a Micro Center store, you can get one with a fan for the same price. The CPU Zero recommended is a great one too. Edit:Sorry, I lied, this is actually the MoBo I used: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128077 Pretty similar though.

NIKO Posted May 18, 2008 Content Count: 1386 Joined: 03/02/07 Status: Offline Share Posted May 18, 2008 i would like to know if this power supply would work well with my Gigabyte p35-s3g MOBO and my core 2 duo CPU http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2872506&cp=&sr=1&origkw=power+supply&kw=power+supply&parentPage=search its a good price and I wont have to deal with shipping because If they ship it to my store, its no extra cost. BUT I would like to know if it is compatible with my MOBO. Link to comment https://forums.steam-gamers.net/topic/4061-new-cheap-compy/page/2/#findComment-44214
