Jeez I don't check the site in a day and look what happens
Do I really need DDR3? I mean the 4 sticks of DDR2 I use now work perfectly.
I have 500 watt ATX Ultra V Series. Not a 400, sorry for the typo.
I think I can go without getting a new tower. I have an Antec Sonata II, and the front case has broken off. No big deal.
I've been told the mobo I have right now is really good, however its a 939 socket and can only support a duel processor. I'm in full agreement that I need to pick a better mobo.
How about this setup (Without the tower):

This is kind of a stupid question, would I be able to use the same DVD Burners that I use now on the new tower?
