Is my motherboard worth it??

[cambrano]

ok so i have a
Asus M2A-MVP motherboard
Amd athlon 64 x2 dual core processor 6000+ 2.99ghz
cureently have in it

3gig ddr2 ram

Dual Ati radeon HD 2600 XTs

Is this motherboard worth it to get new parts to make it faster or would i be better off getting new computer or upgrading motherboard with new parts

You can't upgrade it, it's too old.

Get a new computer.

what would you suggest? buying one from wally world/electronic store or build own? as in cheaper for the better deal, i have a 680watt psu i believe and a nice case

Depends on what your budget is, fill this in and we can see if you'd be better building or a cheaper unit from a prebuilt would get you more for your money,
