Do you mean the monitor had white lines on it?
as above try another psu if that doesnt work then it must have taken your whole system.
For motherboards and other parts look on ebuyer, they have everything from expensive to cheap and you can tell which boards are best/ more popular because theres lots of customer reviews/comments, obviously read those and get an indication of whether or not its worth buying

possibly just blew the psu up, this is what happened to mine anyhow, i know use surge protectors
my last problem with mine is my heatsink snapped off my cpu and landed on my graphic card and shorted the lot out lol
cost me 1k to fix at the time and upgrade, i need to upgrade again next and ill be looking at 1.5k this time for a half decent system

Depends what you use it for, if its for gaming then look at the newer phenom's(i think it is) but even if your motherboard is intact then you will probably need a newer one to take the newer processor.
