Hey, I have a q9450, but I only have a crappy old single channel ddr2 board to go with it, so I want to get a decent board for LGA 775, no real preference, just PM me with what you have! Mostly just for some retro stuff, LGA 775 is the gap I have in my hardware.

I know this is FS/FT not general hardware so I’ll just make a single comment imploring you to consider other alternatives. Even a N100 would be faster than that ancient Q9450 while consuming a fraction of the power.

Looks at IP35-Pro running C2Q 9650 and laughs at N100's (do love my n97 mini pc tho, makes a great TrueNAS/Apps system)

no, its alright, its more for collection/tinkering, I know what I am getting into ;)
 
Yeah the 775 stuff hasnt got anywhere near as crazy as the earlier retro stuff either. At least I already got several good boards to mess with, I got the previously mentioned Abit IP35 pro, gigabyte X48 DQ6, Asus striker extreme, and the Asrock 775i65G R 3.0.
 
I have a evga 750i. I have to power it on and see if it posts first. I'll let you know when I have some time to test it fully as its been a long time since I've utilized it. It has a A1 code in the product version which was lifetime warranty, Idk how viable that is now haha
 
I have a three boards but two are for 65nm Conroe and Kentsfield CPUs and DDR2 only. The third is not for sale, sadly. Still, good luck with finding something!
