Motherboard for Celeron M380
Hello!
I would like to know what motherboard works with celeron M380 processor. Anyone can help?
I would use them with home linux server, so integrated graphics are fine.
Is there any cheap board for that? Or can U suggest another cheap and energy effient processor and motherboard.
Thanks all!

Unfortunately there aren't many choices. Currently at newegg, there are only two motherboards that support Dothan/Banis based Pentium/Celeron Ms. A full ATX AOpen with a fan on the northbridge, and a mini-ITX one. Neither are terribly cheap. The only "cheap" one I've ever seen is the MSI 915GM Speedstar FA4R. It was going for about $80 as "open box". But that was probably because it had lots of issues and didn't work well. I had been looking at the AOpen i915GMm-HFS. NewEgg has some of those "open box" for around $100 at one time. But now they're out. About $180 is the best I can find now.
It's too bad. The celeron M is a good CPU..... just not for laptops. It would make a great low-powered desktop PC.

I think I forget that celeron processor and by socket 754 mb and sempron64 2800+.
Any ideas how much that is going to take power?
There's only 40gb harddisk and 512 or 1024mb ram.
Any ideas?
I'm just a noob concerning these power stuff.
Edit:Hmm, 3000+ and above semprons only support C'n'Q, am I right?

With such a minimal setup, I'd be amazed if it drew more than 60W at idle.I think I forget that celeron processor and by socket 754 mb and sempron64 2800+.

Yes, correct. CnQ is important for power-saving.Edit:Hmm, 3000+ and above semprons only support C'n'Q, am I right?

Oooo, I just came across the Shuttle XPC SD11GS at Directron. Sounded familiar. And sure enough, SPCR reviewed it. They have it for $260 with a $60 rebate from Shuttle. That's not sounding too bad. A sempron system would still be cheaper. But this is tempting me. (No must not spend money.....)
