hey. i broke my am2 4200+ cpu a few days ago (broke/bent some pins) and i was thinking of just buying a new am2 cpu but now im thinking of buying a new mobo/cpu/ram because i have to buy new ram and a new cpu is about 80$, so i might as well upgrade. i been out of the computer technology scene for a few years so i dont know what to get, the last time i checked the best mobo was like the 680i...
1) what motherboard should i get? ( i want a quad core amd or intel, not the i7 or i5 cause im not really a heavy gamer.)
2) what video card should i get? ( i was thinking of the 5770 because its short and my case is small so getting a 260 gtx is not a option. i need a video card somewhere around the 5770 dimensions)
thanks for the help!
