PC Peripherals Mini PC using old components

[mustangman]

Hi,

I am thinking of downsizing my current PC. The motherboard has fried am thinking of using the processor and ram on a mini PC as a 2nd computer.

Parts to be reused:

C2Q Q6600
4GB DDR2 800mhz
500GB Sata2
Sata2 DVDRW

Any suggestions on the motherboard and cabinet?
Going for a Mini PC form due to space constraints.

Thanks, MM

Sell your DDR2 ram as these days DDR2 RAMs are more costly than DDR3.

Buy any MSI, Gigabyte, Asus motherboard supporting DDR3 RAM. If you are going to use this setup for Net surfing and HD Media Playback usage; you hardly need more than 2GB DDR3. Buy any second hand low profile HD 4350 graphics card with HDMI, DVI, VGA connectors. You may buy Circle cabinets with PSU such as Lil Black etc. Check here entercircle.com

I can buy your CPU

What would this Mini PC be used for finally? A lot depends on that IMO.
