My son's PC with a Gigabyte H97N-WIFI and i5-4590 has been flaking out lately and now won't POST. Have tried running the board bare and swapping RAM but no joy. Wondering if there is a similar era board (M-ATX or ITX) out there or a MoBo/CPU combo someone wants to move on? Shipping to Northland. (Ideally with an S/PDIF output but we could get a USB adapter if that's not on the cards). Thanks for reading. Could also consider similar vintage cased PC.

I'm just having a clean out of parts, know I've got a couple of boards, not sure what socket but will take a look tomorrow.

I do have a GA-Z170-HD3 board with a 6700k and 32gb (2400)ddr 4 ram sitting doing nothing.

It's a socket 1151.

sorry no S/PDIF

Its just the case / cpu (With a decent cooler on it) and the Ram

I don't know what your budget is.

In Hokianga, occasionally go to Kerikeri to shop. Have an aunt visiting Whangarei for a few days at the moment.

Thanks, sounds interesting. I don't want to lowball you, if you have a price in mind, feel free to post it here or PM me and I can consider it or someone else might be interested.

Bugger, one is ancient (Core 2 days) and the other which *might* be right socket (cant find any model number on it), is potentially dead (was in daughters PC until couple months ago when it all died after a storm).

Update : Found model (tiny little sticker on it), 1155 socket :(

Sorry was a mistype on my reply there is no case just.

Motherboard / cpu + cooler / ram

There is no such thing as a low ball offer just a conservative estimate hahaha

I would say $350 excluding the courier would be pretty fair.

That's OK if they take up your offer, it's a fair price to performance ratio but probably more than we need at the moment.

Are you still looking for one of these? I have a few Haswell era motherboards around. When you say S/PDIF output, do you just mean the 2-pin S/PDIF motherboard header? Or an actual optical or coax S/PDIF socket?

Yes, still looking around. Would prefer a TOSLink or coax socket on the backplate over sourcing a bracket for the motherboard header or getting a USB soundcard with an optical output but would consider options that would require that workaround.
