Looking at a new motherboard, processor and memory bundle with a budget of about £120. Have seen two at this price mark but was just wondering if anyone knows of any better deals. I want the system for general internet browsing and occasional gaming. I have a nvidia 9800gt silent cell to add to the package to help boost the performance.
first option is :Biostar N68S3 motherboard with AMD Dual Core 260 3.2Ghz CPU and 4GB Ultra Fast DDR3 1333Mhz RAM
second is :Biostar G41D3 motherboard with Intel Pentium Dual Core E5500 2.7Ghz CPU and 4GB Ultra Fast DDR3 1333Mhz RAM.
If I can boost my budget to £140 there is a third option of :Biostar G41D3 motherboard with Intel Pentium Dual Core E6600 3.06Ghz CPU and 4GB Ultra Fast DDR3 1333Mhz RAM.
I understand these are all budget range, but I have very little funds and I believe either of these will be an inprovement on my current amd sempron 64 4200+ ecs 6100-m2 motherboard and 2gb ddr2 533 ram. Also IDE is a must as I have a sata drive and an old IDE for backup storage.
Any suggestions would be most appreciated.
