To Europe shipping would be 25 euros and to USA/Canada it would be 35 euros. Overall cosmetic condition of this m...

[FOUND]: Planar/motherboard for X60 Tablet

Hi!

Need replacement motherboard for my old trusty X60 Tablet. Can be with any CPU (L2400, L2500, L7400), don't care about WWAN or SIM slot. Has to work and has to be cheap :D

Preferrably from Europe but that also doesn't matter if the total price is right.

Thanks!

I know that they are interchangeable, I have made quite a few Frankenpads ;)

Agree, it takes medium and higher i5 CPU to better this quad-core. I used to run it on Asus P5E3 board (X38 chipset) and it ran perfectly. Never bothered to overclock but it would do nicely with decent cooler.
