Which socket 939 combo?

[Dorkenstein]

I need to get a new motherboard, socket 939 with a good processor. What is the best combination for like 500 or less? Thanks.

DFI Lanparty Ultra-D w/ X2 3800+

If you want SLI capability DFI has those options too.

Actually would a faster chip work just as well since the prices are going down?

Sure...I said the 3800+ because it was the best deal currently available in a CPU IMO. Since I overclocked mine to 2.6Ghz quite easily.

Use 2 video cards together to split the work and increase performance?

Are you saying that I would be able to work on two different projects? :roll:
