Need advice if I should upgrade.
Last response: in Motherboards
Hello everyone, I need some advice, but first, let me give my computer specs.
Motherboard: ASUS 790FX M3A32-MVP DELUXE(Latest Bios supports Phenom II 965.)
CPU: AMD 5200+ Dual Core 2.7Ghz.
Ram: 2 gigs PC2-6400
Video card: BFG GTX 275 O/CED

What I have right now sitting on my desk is a newly ordered Phenom II Quad 965 3.4Ghz and 4 Gigs of OCZ 1066 DDR2.
I ordered these because basically I was at my limit from income tax, now here's the dilemma... I now have more money than what I did when I ordered this. So I am thinking about buying a new motherboard and going ahead and getting DDR3 ram instead (Would just send the 4gigs of ddr2 back).
Motherboard: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...
DDR3 Ram: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...
Is it even worth going through the trouble and getting that? Or could my money be better spent else where. I would really like some advice. I'm basically just trying to max out my performance for gaming.

More about : advice upgrade
well basically you are set with the cpu and motherboard you could always save that cash to get a fresh dx11 gpu hm 280 $ with that you could get a 5850 but since you've got a 275 (can always sell too)
with both 275 sold and 280 you can get your hands on a 5870 or gtx 295 about the same price (but the 5870 is dx11 enabled)
