Having no idea which Motherboard we needed to buy, we looked on the internet to see what was going for what price.
Having used Gigabye Motherboards in the past and never had any trouble with them the wisest thing to do was to keep to Gigabyte.
We decided on the GigabyteGA-945P-DS3 purely on the features it offered.
Cost
Around £46. For a motherboard this is good.

of this is that there are 4 DIMM memory slots, the first orange, the next purple, then orange, then purple. These two colours represent two different channels - DIMM's 1 and 2 are channel A and DIMM's 3 and 4 are channel B. Therefore by plugging the relevant DIMM's into the same colour sockets you can take advantage of the high speed RAM the motherboard offers.
The motherboard itself measures 30.5 x 24.4 cm, which is the norm really for ATX style motherboards, suitable for the ATX type PC cases (Towers).
I feel that the components on the motherboard are laid out really sensibly. The IDE connectors on the side nearest the optical drives and storage drives, so that the cable for this doesn't have to be too long and therefore restrict airflow inside the PC case, and can be tucked away easily. The jumpers and pins for the case power-on button ...
