Price is within ~$40 in favor of the D 940.
Which of these would make the best choice for a new general purpose system? Used mainly for websurfing, general computer/education use, mp3, photoediting and Everquest.
Asus p5N32 SLI + D 940 = $473
Asus A8N SLI NF4 premium + 3800 X2 = $482
Upgrading from a PIII, and trying to keep the total box under $1k
2gb Ram (Corsair Twinx)
GeForce 7600GT 256mb (or another $175 card)
Raptor 74gb HD
Will be using a Coolermaster Wavemaster case.
The new Intel Conroe CPUs will not fit in that mobo correct?
Thanks for the help. This will be my first build, but have researched and read these forums and boards extensively.
