errr... which Fenton?
Found a tempting m/b,
https://www.aria.co.uk/Products/Components/Motherboards/Socket+775+%
28Intel%29/Gigabyte+GA-P35C-DS3R+Socket+775+Motherboard
+?productId=27303. Looks nice, and (I think) Gigabyte are good, aren't
they? And it supports DDR2 and 3, so there's room to upgrade :D.
