If I was you I would go with the SKT 940 mobo because the 939s will be a thing of the past in a couple of months. It happened to me when I got 754 about a year ago now you can hardly find sh*t for them


Oh yes i forgot to add that Single core processors are alot better for gaming than dual core, but if you do alot of edititing and what not then yeah get it.

Hm, ill look into that, Alpine. I dont have the money to buy it anyway, and i might not have it for a while. My job is kinda meh right now. Girlfriends bday is coming up in june, but the biggest thing is that dad is turning 40 in august. Wanna get him an expensive present. Like an HDTV, or something like that.

Edit: By the way, even though ive seen that Indiana Jones flick before, its still hilarious!! haha

I just bought that card yesterday to run Oblivion, it kicks ass. Just don't be stupid like me and forget to plug it into the power supply or you'll spend 4 hours cursing, hitting things and swapping the old and new vid card to figure out what is wrong.

Thats the same processor I have... love it
Different Mobo but comparable stats... love it
Better video card, but I just prefer Nvidia

More ram until I get my Corsair Dual Channel or OCZ memory, I only have 1 gig
Same 250 HD
Don't have the raptor, I dont know what I would use it for
Have a DVD+/- CD-RW drive
Black Aspire Tower, I forget the name

Logitech MX1000

All in all that will be one b*tching computer
