I’d start by trying to figure out what is wrong with your existing mobo. Could be something easily fixable.
Thanks, the screen gets lines of colored pixels right after it boots up on Ambient, as you move the mouse the lines of colored pixels dance around the screen. The row of pixels go away when you run a program off of Ambient except for rno gadgets and clock they still have colored lines. Seems like the colored lines stay on ambient and do not go on to programs.
The second display also has colored lines ( run turbocalc on it) If I move the spreadsheet window the background colored pixels go away, but stay in the spreadsheet itself.
System will normally lock up system eventually with fans turned on high. Using it right now and it seems to be fine except for the lines of colors. Worried it will corrupt files though...
The one cpu went bad a year or so ago and I swapped them to get it back.
I took it apart and cleaned and reseated everything, didn't fix the problem.
