Hey, my motherboard (Asus m5a88-m) fried today after reseating the ram.

My question has become if I should take this as an opportunity to upgrade the PC, or just replace it.

Here are my specs:
AMD FX 6200
Stock Cooling
Asus M5a88-m (dead)
Corsair tx-650 power supply
1tb hitachi hdd
cooler master haf 912 case
asus 24x dvd burner
2x4 gb corsair ram

Thanks.
