Cheapest Motherboard+CPU+Fan Deal?
I need to replace a motherboard, cpu (and fan) for a shuttle style PC. I have everything there (RAM, HDD, DVD, etc.) so I just need a cheap as possible replacement. Checked ebay, aria, ebuyer, etc.but just wondering if anyone knows of anything cheap going.
Special Requirements:
- Needs to be micro ATX
- Needs to support DDR2
- Would prefer a socket AM2 (see below)
The original CPU was an AMD Sepmpron 3400+ socket AM2 but I bent some of the pins and theres no guarantee I can sort it out.
Would appreciate any information, tips, etc.

Seems to be a few at eBuyer also.
As Jah said above, if you can consider upgrading: AMD Hudson (integrated graphics and processor) M-ATX boards are now available, with USB 3.0 and Sata 6Gbps for about £100. Low power, quiet etc, just need to get some DDR3 memory which is pretty cheap at the moment.

Its not a shuttle brand. It just a shuttle-style PC. The connectors from the power supply are all the normal type (I checked the power supply connections with another PC).
Budget is very, very low.
