CPU/Motherboard/Ram upgrade

Willymuncher · 2007-06-09 21:35:56

I'm about to spend $600 on upgrades but I'd like it if I could run it by you guys first to get some opinions and ideas. Memory - 2x CORSAIR XMS2 2GB CPU - Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 Motherboard - ASUS P5K or ASUS P5B-E Thats what I've been looking at so far, anything you'd change around?

There ain't that much difference between the Intel P35 and P965 chipsets but for the sake of it I'd probably go with the Asus P35 as it's guaranteed to support the newer Core 2 CPU's.

Everything else is fine.
