So last night my lightweight desktop used for web surfing and word processing gave up the ghost.
Decided to go by my local box store and look for a new MB and CPU to replace the dead stuff, I just happened
to pickup an open box MSI b350 motherboard and open it up to check it out. Low and behold this was just
what I was looking for as there was already an AMD A10-9700 socketed on the board. Needless to say for $82 and
some change it came home with me. swapped it in for my old 8350 (Rest in Peace) and it fired right up. Dont forget
to remove your CPU's if you decide to return a motherboard.
Needless to say I will keep checking the open box units for great deals.
