    wondering what you gents would suggest... I took on trade a flawed Pavilion minitower P6226f - had a problem common to these with a failing sata controller [or something related] so it will lose drives on-the-fly.
    anyway, wondering whether to just chunk it - great case, nice size, etc... I stole the processor for my server since its the next model up from what I have.

    what mobo would go in this case? I would prefer something compatible with AMD Trinity or Brazos CPU's [tweakable Brazos], and failing that, 2nd or later i3/i5

    Apparently the oem board is some sort of micro-ATX by Pegatron.
    one post says something like this will fit: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157469

    what about this one? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157365
