Hey everyone, I'm tired of my crappy old sempron and I have $300 to spend on a new mobo, proc, and memory...
I don't need much, the most intensive program I have is probably counter-strike.
Here is what I'm looking at right now from newegg:
1) Intel Bones
Intel E7200 wolfdale $130 (link)
Asus P5N-EM $75 (link)
G.SKILL 4gb (2x2g) ddr2-800 $80 (link)
Total $285 (pre-ship)
2) AMD Bones
Athlon 64 x2 6000+ windsor 3ghz $114 (link)
Gigabyte GA-MA78GM-S2H $90 (link)
Same memory
Total $284 (pre-ship)
3) Other recommendation for under $300
I used to keep up with all the technology but I haven't recently so I'm not sure what would be best...
What do you think?
Thanks in advance...
