Motherboard for Q9450: P35 or X38?
Hey all,
Currently I have a E8400 running on a P5K-E Wifi/AP, but recently received my Q9450, and wanted to get the best out of it :P
I wanted to ask all you experts out there to recommend me a motherboard for the Q9450, but was wondering if I should stick with my current P5K-E Wifi or if I should swap my mobo for a X38 based..
BTW, I wanted to keep on using DDR2 for now.
Budget is around $200 +/- 20.
Thanks in advance!
