    Upgrading my system and decided that while my motherboard needed replacing (P8P67 Pro B3 Rev 3 .1 was not happy in Windows 8.1) the CPU is still going strong (i5 2500K). So I've sold the mobo but trying to track down mATX/mITX Z77 motherboards is a nightmare!

    Anybody know where I could pick one of these up? eBay only has a couple of very overpriced options in the $$$s.

    Your best bet is probably the MP on here, but you have a considerable number of posts to go before you gain access! Get (not spam) posting :thumb:

    I know what you mean, you have my sympathy on this - I'm starting out to do the same, but only have a 1155 Pentium to run with, so could afford a CPU upgrade.
    I have a thread on the Hardware page asking about Z87 and Z97 as Z77 ITX boards are only £20 or so less to buy new and not a lot used that are accessible.

    Someone else has asked on the Marketplace for Z77 ITX and had no replies.

    I can only see Asrock Z77E ITX boards at £80-£90 on Ebay and elsewhere and am sure they have gone up over the last month...

    Good luck, let me know how you get on

    Have a look on Amazon. There is still quite a lot on there and a few bargains to be had. been looking on there at a one for myself. So they are still about.
