Title: WTB: 1155 socket motherboard
Post by: benlav on August 14, 2014, 05:58:10 pm

team,

my mobo is f**ked and is going to take 4 weeks to get fixed via warranty. Looking to spend circa $100 on any 1155 socket mobo which will get me through these dark days.

My goal is to get my hands on one before Saturday. New, used, with a I/O shield, i dont care.

message me.

Have a Gigabyte Z68X-ED3R-B3 that I'm looking to get rid of for $100. Where are you located as I'm 99% sure it works but have no way of testing it.

I live in Auckland, on the shore. Are you local-ish?

argh, i have just checked the compatability of my CPU (i5 3570k).

I can only use it with Q77, Q75, H77, Z75, Z77, B75 and H61 mobos. It doesn't look like the Z68 chipset will work.
