Hi!
I've been toying with the idea of upgrading to a new budget rig (new MB, GPU, CPU and RAM), since my Athlon 64 3500+ and 7800gs is starting to show their age (though I must say, they've aged gracefully).
So in essence, should I go AM3 with Phenom II and 4670/4770/4850
OR
wait for core i3 and G300?
Even if I don't want to go intel and nvidia, the prices should drop on AMD's offerings, right? Is it clever to wait?
Also... I'm really excited to see what the 5670 can do.
BTW, it's mostly for gaming and safe overclocking.
