I'm an [idiot]

I dont know if its better (never used it) but it looks cool!

I do have a couple of the Biostar mobos (socket 939) and they overclock nicely. But Gigabyte is a good company too.

it also has onboard video, so if you wanted to get a video card later you could.

Oh, I didn't even notice that it has onboard video. Forget that I guess.

 

[markkleb]

I dont remember ever seeing a ATX mobo with video before...

I spent $258 for my single core CPU, your dual core is about half and is next gen, lol.
I wish I had waited.

Alright, wel I"m having some trouble selling my current rig. Does anyone else agree with that other guy who said I should be alright playing most games if I simply get a nice video card and some more ram?

 

[JoshSB]

Yes, it is a placeholder though, if you do get newer parts to just upgrade it is a temporary fix, there is only so much you can fix it up. If anything you can keep your current rig and build a brand new rig and worst case scenario you have another workstation to run crap on you do not want/need on your gamer.

the problem is all my current stuff is last gen compatible. I wont be able to re use anything I buy for my current set up.

Ugh, what to do...
