    AMD Dual CPU motherboard in UK

    Does anyone know where could I get a dual CPU board for AMD processors in UK within a reasonable price tag?

    Unfortunately I can't afford to pay £200+ for a mobo , I will still need some money for processors left .

    Probably wishful thinking. Dual CPUs are a bit of niche product for home pc's or you're looking at server boards which are pricier due to more stringent QA (amongst opther things).

    If it's slightly older CPUs you might be putting in then Ebay might be lucky for you otherwise I think you'll just have to pay.

    An unfortunate truth. Yet I am surprised that people are not using these boards a bit more, as one get's far more raw power on them

    Although, I once seen an Abit board for just ove £100.

    Unfortunately at work we have our proxies in US, so I am a bit limited on search results at the moment.

    I own a Gigabyte GA-7DPX dual Athlon MP board that wasn't too expensive.. It seems it's a rather rare board though..

    Check your local computer huts

    The one I work in just bought a used dual Ath system (Gigabyte mb) for 120 bucks... Resale price is $250 for the entire rig. If my conversion is correct you are gonna need to find a used board to stay in your price range. I would start looking for the system as a whole as opposed to just searching for the mobo at a discounted price.
