I need a new motherboard desperatly, mine is practically an antique. Thing is i only have around £80-£90 to spend. Any ideas?

Needs to be an intel socket 775, Sli would be nice but not necessary.
I'd type my pc specs out all fancy again but teh mods would remove it. Again.

I'd recommend evga's 680i board if you can get it where you are ... should fit your budget.  It's a stellar board.

GA-P35C-DS3R, it also supports DDR3 modules and the new 45nm processors so it's future proof. For SLI you need an motherboard with an nForce chipset. The 650i motherboards  fit your budget although the 650 has some issues and bugs. If you really want to go SLI you'll need to save up for an 680i or above motherboard.
This ASUS motherboard seems like a solid deal for SLI, it has the new 750i chipset, LINK.

It's just what you are looking for:
Sli not really needed, future proof, good overclocking, low power consumption: gigabyte motherboard I stated
SLI not really needed, good price performance, good overclocking, low power consumption: GA-P35-DS3L (I have it too)
you want a good SLI board: 680i and above.

The DS3L seems really good value for money, I'll probably get that .
SLI wasn't a real concern so i'm not too bothered about that.
Gonna have to get some new RAM though...XD
