OK, so apparently my dad is going to get me something good for Christmas this year. micro center has some good deals and right now this is what i was going to tell him i wanted at top, then other options at bottom.
there is a deal for a 2500k and a gigabyte ga-z68ap-d3-b3 for $220 (after 10 buck mir)

and i already have my apex vortex 3620 for the case, and i will prob take the hdd out of this or find one cheap somewhere, same for disk drive. then either try to get ms to do something with the win xp on an old computer if even possible but prob just get a new copy of win7.
otherwise i was thinking one of the combos for 40 off if i combo a phenom x2 560 or a x4 970 with one of these mobos

obviously i'd like a 900 chipset but idk if i'll be getting a gpu right away so i want it useable from the start so 800's igpu will work for a while if it has to.
also i do sort of want to try the fx 4100 since it's 120 and can be combo'd with these too. and a llano is a little tempting too for the igpu and i think its igpu works with that gpu i listed above for its weird crossfire thingy, and there are some fm1 combos with 40 off too.
