Oh I forgot a couple of things didn't I?
MoBo: ASUS A8N - SLI ATX
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813131517
my price range I would say is anything from 2,000 to 2,500 (2,500 is pushing it. USD)
Also I was told that the processor was perfectly fine for what I wanted to do? what makes that one "obscelete" (SP?)
Also I would like to use this computer for gaming primarily. Although every day useage such as Internet surfing, Word processing etc etc is a must also.
