Hey,
Here are my current specs:

My motherboard is about do die. If I touch some of the wires it turns off and bits have broken off before now. I also think you'll agree that it's quite dated. I was just wondering if you guys could give me some advice?
I have two options:
1. Replacing the mobo, but keeping everything else.
2. Upgrading to a newer mobo, but also replacing the CPU and RAM to something like an i5/7.
Waddya guys think? I don't wanna spend too much either. If I was just gonna replace the mobo, which one would you recommend? (Budget about £90)
If I was gonna go for the full wack and upgrade the CPU too, which one should I get? (Budget about £250, but preferably lower, obviously)
Thanks for the help!
You can buy my Motherboard, I'm [url=http://www.facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1008233]selling[/url] it, I would accept £90, you wouldn't get a better motherboard for that price.

Milky, isn't it a GD85 you mean?
Also, how does the GD85/80 compare to the Asus Sabertooth?

The 85 comes with USB3. I don't know how it compares directly, all I know is I have yet to find a bad review of the P55 GD80, all citing that it is a great 1156 motherboard.
So... any advice?
Honestly, your cpu is still pretty nice. But if I were you and had the money I'd get an setup.
