I'm looking to buy a new computer system and have everything ready to order apart from the motherboard. I was originally going to go with the ASUS M2N-MX, but the dealer is sold out and won't have any more for a few weeks. A possible alternative is the Gigabyte M61PM-S2.
The system I'm getting is:
CPU: AMD Athlon X2 4800+
RAM: 2x1GB Kingtons DDR2 667
HDD: Seagate 320GB SATAII
Case: CollerMaster Centurion5 (CAC-T05)
GPU: 256MB ASUS 7900GS
What are the relative benefits/disadvantages of the GB vs the ASUS? Which would usually be the better choice? Why?
Cheers.
