1 does pci-express 2.0 really matter (now i am screwed cause i got an agp back in the day thinking it didn't matter, don't wanna make that mistake again) and two what motherboard should i get, i don't really care about sli, i just wan't a little overclockability. I wanna hit like 3.8 on the e8400.
 
o one more thing do you think i should just go for a e2200 and overclock to **** (no experiance overclocking though). Cause I am gonna get the 9600gt and then use evga upstep to get a better one later.
 
the e2200 isn't as fast as the e8400, the e8400 can get to around 4.0ghz
where as the e2200 can only get to around 3.4 and has a much smaller cache
 
i have the maximus formula. and I love it. ste has a good one too, but I cant think of the name. quad gt. possibly abit quad gt x38
 
true but its a third of the price and from the review on tomshardware, they say the 45nm is still in its baby stages, so i could just opt for the e2200 (upgrading from a p4 so I would still **** myself) and then when the better 45nm come out upgrade!
