    Looking to upgrade my partners PC and am going to go with a G3258 but obviously need a mobo to OC it with.

    Doesn't need to be flash, but anyone got any recommendations ?

    It just needs to to be as cheap as poss and capable of a moderate overclock.

    I bought this one

    Seems like a really nice board for the money, well equipped.

    I have a G3258 in it but I haven't tinkered with it yet but it should be more than capable of overlcocking it nicely.

    Obviously a mini itx board, not sure what form factor you require.

    Yeh would be kinda lost in there :)

    Maybe you could install some bookshelves in the left over space :)

    Interesting. Not sure the saving is worth it over the MSi but it is certainly an option I hadnt thought about.

    budget board for a budget processor....

    forgot to mention: you need BIOS 2001 or newer to enable OC
