Looking for a AMD Athlon 64 X2 motherboard

Ok I have given up on my A8N-E motherboard. I am looking for an MB that will accept a 939 pin AMD Athlon 64 X2 CPU

I have checked Ebay looking for a similar replacement like a A8N-SLI Premium or something like that and they sure are proud of them.

Anyone have any other idea where I might try????????

Ok I checked with ASI, one of my suppliers and they have two. One is the ASUS A8V-X, the other is the Foxconn 6100K8MA-RS. I am leaning toward the Foxconn board since it supports PCI-E x16 and the ASUS board doesn't

I'd go with the Foxconn board simply because the ASUS A8V-X uses a VIA chipset which suck in my opinion.

The Foxconn board has the NVIDIA nForce 410 chipset, plus like I said it will support PCI-E X16.

I don't think $50 is a bad price for the motherboard.
