Ok guys, here is the deal. I have $300 now and should have about $700 come June to spend. I want a dual core processor in an overclockable motherboard with at least a 7600GT. I was playing around on newegg and got this...
OCZ 1GB Stick 2.5-3-3-6 DDR400 - $85
eVGA 7600GT - $180
Leadtek TV Tuner - $42
Total Cost with shipping is $320
This leaves me with $380 for a CPU and Motherboard. I was thinking about the 3800x2 but that would leave me with about $70 for a motherboard after shipping. I bet the prices will go down because AMD is releasing their new line of processors come June but I am thinking ahead.
Any opinions?
P.S.
I already bought a case/psu, AS5, DVD-RW, Floppy, and a WD 80G sata drive.
