Hi guys can you please suggest a cheap mobo for my CPU.
I dont want to spend much on the Mobo now,Will buy a good one later.
Suggest me the cheapest available please. Either it is DDR2 or DDR3 no problem.
But should definitely have a PCI-E for my HD 5770.
 
Asus M4A78LT M LE ~ 2700

Gigabyte 785GMT-US2H ~ 3400

Gigabyte 880GM-UD2H ~ 3900

Asus M4A78LT M LE supports Cpu only upto 95W TDP. If OP has cpu other than Phenom II X6 1055T, it won't work on that motherboard. The other two motherboards mentioned do seems to support Cpu's upto 125W TDP. :)
 
Yup I know that... :) and OP didn't mention which x6 processor he has... AFAIK I think OP has 1090T... So he should better off with a better board then that Asus one...

@OP

Take the odd man out (1st option) if you have 1090T...
 
Actually i am buying 1055T from a TE member.So thats the model no. So should i go with the 1st one?
 
Yup you can... But if I were you I would have spend some extra bucks and would have bought 785GMT-US2H or 880GM-UD2H for such a good proccy...
 
If i had the money i would have bought myself a very decent board....anyways will buy it later in coming 2-3 months. At least it will survive for the 2-3 months. I hope.
 
Better wait instead of rushing into buy, personally vote for the GA 880GM-UD2H ~ 4400/-, best buy in terms of features and performance mix. If you can put in 400 Rs. more go for the GA 880GMA-UD2H, it adds USB 3.0 and SATA III to the mix making it the best buy I will say.
 
If i dont buy any mother board how will i use my pc then? because i will be selling my current mobo and cpu. so i do need a board. Will go with the first one and then will save for 2-3 months later will buy a descent one. :)
 
If it ddint occur to you already, rather than buying this motherboard now, do not sell your current processor and motherboard and save money till you have enough for a good enough motherboard.

If you've not bought anything wait till BullDozer and Zambezi to come up from the AMD stables and save up, then analyze the performance/price offered by AMD vs. Intel and buy your system directly then, instead of buying a Thuban. It will be worth I say.

Errr... Check the link. It says N/A for processors with 125w TDP. It supports processor upto 95w TDP only. You expect a nForce 630a based mobo to support 125w TDP Thubans :|
