Hey everyone.
I am planning on throwing away my old comp and building my first computer.
I only use my computer for web-surfing, since the computer im using now cant even handle solitaire. I dont need a really good gaming computer but i will probably start playing more once i get this set up. Also i am planning on using my 37inch lcd as a second monitor.
I do not know what to build tho. I am going amd because of my budget also for their upgrade-ability. I want to get an AM3 mobo, but deciding which one is the hard choice.
Also I do not know if i should buy the PhenomIIx4 955 or 965, or buy a PII or athlonII with dual or tri core and try unlocking the extra core. I am thinking of going with the athlon2 and waiting for the new hexcores to come out then upgrade then when the prices of the quads drop.
Any suggestions on an AM3 motherboards with ddr3 that are budget friendly? Also any ideas to as what i should buy for my cpu?
Thank you
