So my PC's mobo sh!t the bed yesterday, hard drive is still good though. Its an HP a6300f BTW. Thought about just replacing the mobo but most people ive asked are suggesting I go with a whole new desktop. Reviews for the mobos are very negative. Not looking to spend a fortune(low on $$$), just need something my wife can browse the internet with and complete her online college courses. I may be willing to build a desktop as well to get my feet wet.

So Im open to reasonable suggestions.

Thanks!
