Looking at AMD x2 3600's

The Brisbane will run cooler, because of it's smaller 65nm process, and has more cache. I'd get the Brisbane.
 
it also will (quite likely w/ the right mobo) pull a higher overclock than the windsors. as in 3ghz +.
i am thinking seriously of getting one myself (like today) along with a nforce 590 mobo...
haven't decided which one yet, probably the foxconn.
and probably some g skill hk's so i can see if sora is FOS or not, lol.
 
i say definitely get a 590 chipset. apokalipse has told me, and all research i have done point to the 590 being an overclocking monster with the am2. especially this little 65nm brisbane cpu.
i just haven't narrowed it down. i know ecs has a 590 mobo for like less than 100.00, but dont know what the oc options are like.
i have read that the foxconn w/590 can oc am2 WELL past 3ghz. thats probably the one i will go with.
 
so can u show me a build for $800-$900 that has that brisbane and junk, i will be OC'ing the monster, so I want a good cooler in it (or does the AMD Stock Cooler do good, like the Intel one) video card, maybe a sound card i'm not entirely sure, but if u can squeeze it in the budget thats cool
