Looks good, but it is very pricey.

That is the prices for the mobo that you can get right now. Newegg has it for $150, but it is out of stock, you would have to wait.

And the proc:

http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProduc...103-502&depa=1

Add that up form Newegg, you get $350, whenever they get it in stock. From other places, I get $380-$420. Now, if you want to pay $465, go right ahead, I was just pointing out that you could get them for a lot cheaper.

BTW, if you want to pay that price, go with the AMD A64 3500
