hi
over the last couple of days ive been researching parts and have now got 3 options. which is the best?
option 1-
core 2 duo e4300 1.86ghz-
asus P5N-E SLI 650i atx
kingston 1gig ddr2 667 cl6 1.8v

Point Of View 7600GT 256mb DDR3 PCI-E graphics card

total is £216 roughly
option 2
core 2 duo e4300 1.86ghz-
asrock conroe945g dvi
kingston 1gig ddr2 667 cl6 1.8v
Point Of View 7600GT 256mb DDR3 PCI-E graphics card
total is £188 roughly
option 3 is an am2 system.
im leaning towards option 1 as the motherboard is supposed to have a good range of overclocking features which is something i intend to do. i would be happy with a 2.6ghz overclock.
my question is is it worth paying £28 more for that board or should i use that to get a an e6420 and stick with option 2 and forget about overclocking
at the moment my budget is £200 and i can stretch it for option 1 but if i was to wait till june/july i should have another £100 probally more.
