My MM looks to be ready to give out on my and I would like to upgrade this. The only game I'm playing is wow and AoE3. I was reading about the 780g chip and it sounds like it would be cheap. I currently run a asus m2n-e and a x850xt. Would this board be and upgrade for me? I was looking to build a smaller box to save space. I also run 2gb of ram.

Thanks!!
 
A while back, Anand had a writeup on 780G burning out with high-wattage Phenoms. I'd steer clear of 780G except for the premium boards. Now you're running a separate GPU, you might as well pick up an ASUS M3A.
 
I'm not going to use a Phenom chip, just reusing my current cpu. Do you have the link to the review? I wanted to build a small system not a desktop.
