Hello all. I am looking to upgrade my processor/mobo right now.
Here is what I have in mind for a processor:
http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=19-116-163&depa=0
It is a Northwood Intel Pentium 4/ 3.0C GHz 800MHz FSB, 512K Cache, Hyper Threading Technology
Now...what motherboard should I buy with this, and keep in mind I want to keep the motherboard somewhere around 100 dollars if possible. OEM is fine with me.
