total cost is $1,085 after shipping... this is going to be my conroe ready computer as i gave back the FX computer i had in my sig, and am selling my 4000+, what do you think?

Why would you buy a PD 930 and a new mobo now, when Conroe is coming out next week? If you ask me, just wait a week and buy the Conroe instead of buying a PD and only using it for a week.

i thought it was next month.... well then, lol, i think ill wait then... other than that, what do you think of the system?

 

[Ku-sama]

besides, i wont be getting conroe the day it comes out, i cant afford it, i need something that will last me a good 2-3 months maybe

Yea, for a few months that PD will be fine. Despite the fact that it is an Intel, I am sure it will play games fine considering the GPU and RAM.
