PC Motherboard / Processor Upgrade
Hey guys,
Thought I'd tap your expertise on this issue. My desktop computer is on its last legs at the moment and runs extremely hot, slowly and noisily (the fan on the processor ship is running overtime). I'd like to upgrade the motherboard and processor with something quiet, cool and inexpensive. It doesn't have to be the fastest processor at all, something which is current and low-end would serve me very well - enough to watch DVDs, surf the web and run as a fileserver. Quiet is a big priority as it will live in my bedroom.
I have a nice ATX tower case with sound proofing, a quiet PSU, three hard drives, DVD player, CD writer and DVD player (I know I don't need all three). I have a Matrox G400 graphics card which I am happy with and feel no need to upgrade.
What would you recommend?
