I'd choose the Biostar just because it had an NF3 250 chipset. I've heard it's not a bad board by any means.

How much faster is the CPU(Athlon 64 3400+) than an Athlon 2600+? It says, Operating Frequency 2.4GHz, but isn't an 2600+ about 2GHz?
Thanks

The biostar combo is very nice. I ordered one a few weeks ago, no problems, amazingly fast without overclocking. I liked it so much that I got a second order of the same combo which is still in the box and I'll put it together when a new case arrives in the mail. Using a 1 Gig stick of GSkill Extreme RAM, inexpensive (25-35 dollars after rebates) 128mb direct x9 vga cards as they go on sale at the Egg and Cooler Master 19 dollar (after rebates) power supply (cooler master store at the Egg).: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817171007
These PCs are being used for software development and office applications, not for gaming so the inexpensive video cards work just fine.
