Now that I don't need a laptop anymore I decided to sell that and buy a desktop. I have about $1400 to spend and i decided on these parts but its not concrete if there is a better deal.


Mobo: MSI "K8N Neo2 Platinum" NVIDIA nForce3 ULTRA Chipset Motherboard For AMD Socket 939 CPU -RETAIL

CPU: AMD Athlon 64 3200+, 512KB L2 Cache, Socket 939 64-bit Processor - Retail
