first question would be - do you need a PC or would laptop do the same thing (at least for what you are looking for it to do.
If the answer is yes - then the next question would be, what do I need it to do. If you want to play the latest games, then you are obviously looking for something fairly powerful.
If it is only the motherboard you are looking to replace, then it needs to be a similar replacement to match up to the processor (intel). There should be a number out there to choose from - I got my last 2 mother boards from ebay from "geeks" who were always trying to keep up to date so decent motherboard at a fraction of the new price.
Regarding your graphics card, according to AMD, then there should be support for that card on Windows 7 - have you downloaded and installed the latest drivers required?
