Personally, I'd choose an Athlon 64 socket 939 (the 3000+ is reasonably
priced...$158 retail at General Nanosystems) and an Asus mobo. I'd
strongly reccommend socket 939 for future-proofing...you'll be able
upgrade your processor more easily. Asus has always done well for
me...I've never had an Asus mobo die on me (sample size of about 15)
and I've had 2 MSI boards die (sample size of about 5)...one within 2
weeks of purchase. I'd also recommend you go with the nVidia nForce 4
chipset. What is the purpose of this machine...desktop, media center,
server?</blockquote><div><br>

This will be my main workstation I use for working from home. My old HP intel 866 Mhz is too slow! :)<br>
