O.K so my exams are near all over and i will soon get a job for even more funds! I need help selecting a few things to upgrade, as i want to have pretty much everything here for when the exams finish so i can start building!
I don't know what mobo to buy, should i go socket 939? Everyone is saying to wait to Conroe but i don't reckon i will be able to afford this and when it comes out it will be ridicously overpriced and i would not even go near it for a few months to wait for it to come down. So atm i am leaning towards getting a san diego 3700 on offer at tekheads atm

And pretty much decided on getting a hiper 580w blue PSU and a thermaltake tsunami dream case!
Does anyone have any other ideas of a rig for me, and how much i will get for things in my current one as i will need to sell parts off to fund this new one![]()
Thanks!
Edit : Whoohooo 500th post!

Well u can consider what i have already if you can put that towards new rig....i have a Fx5700le 256mb and 256mb x 2 Ram lying about also i suppose my 512mb x 2 Geil Ultra X is still a very good set of Ram as i paid good money for them not too long ago on here.
won't let me choose an avatar... ah well. Basically for AM2 you're RAM is useless. I only did base component upgrades here assuming you already have case, hdd, windows, dvd drive, etc.
lol! Is it not better staying AGP rather than PCI-E? Or is all the AM2 based mobos PCI-E? Is there not some with both options so that i could still run my current card for a while, as GPU will probably be the last thing i buy and will want to keep it running with one of my cards. How much do you think i could raise selling my CPU, mobo, Ram, and graphics card then (GPU has unlocked pipes and clocked at 490/890). There's noway i could afford that expensive one though
