I plan on upgrading my system. I am on a tight budget.

I want to upgrade my motherboard, CPU and RAM.

Motherboard: GIGABYTE GA-MA770T-UD3P
-$69.99 after mail-in rebate
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6813128392

CPU: Phenom II X4 955 Black
-$189 Kindof spendy but I want it to last a few years plus I can overclock it to 3.8Ghz
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6819103674

RAM: Crucial Ballistix 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR3 1333 (PC3 10600)
-$68.99
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6820148227

Minus $15.00 for the CPU and Motherboard Combo.
-----------------
equals $322.98
Can you build a better CPU/MB/RAM combo for less?
Let me know!


FYI...
Old system:
ASROCK 939 Dual Sata-2
Athlon 64 X2 4200+
4GB Kingston DDR RAM
