So I've finally managed to get the money together to build a new computer soon I'm just not sure if I should wait for Nehalem or not. I've been putting off a new build for quite some time. Currently I'm running
AMD 3000+, Radeon X800 pro, 2GB ram, cheap power supply.
I was looking to go for the following:
Core 2 E8400
2GB Ram
Radeon 4870
I'd primarily use the system for gaming, and some simulation/rendering
If i waited for nehalem id switch out the E8400 for the ~300 Nehalem part, and switch the memory for 2GB DDR3.
Just looking for opinons/suggestions
