I'm trying to find a motherboard that doesn't cost $40+ for a second gaming machine I'm building. I found a board for cheap, but alas it arrived nonfunctioning. At least the seller let me keep the CPU.

At any rate, my problem is finding a board that meets the specs I need, namely:

- AGP 8x
- internal audio header (Intel HD or AC'97)
- internal USB header
- four DDR RAM slots
- 800MHz FSB
- onboard sound

The kicker seems to be finding a board with four RAM slots and an 800MHz FSB, since those specs were generally only found on higher-end boards...which means that the boards on eBay are all overpriced.

If you think you can help me out, let me know. Thanks.

I recommend an GA-8IG1000MK. I might have a few coming in in the future, but not sure when - also, shipping me be expensive.

I have one, but I don't know if it works (doesn't boot, may be a dead PSU). Not sure how much shipping to your location would be.
