a week ago i bought a tower from a guy for $20 he said when he used it it was beeping loud so i decided to buy it and try to fix it so i got it and i cleaned the motherboard and it worked great!

it came with 450 power supply, 1GB or ram on a neon tower with 40GB of harddrive and this motherboard ..

and with this cpu AMD Phenom II X6 Processor it has a big fan on top of the cpu ASUS brand also the cover of the motherboard has a fan too in the middle

so i want to build my own gaming computer, should i get a better motherboard or keep this one?

If you want an i5 your going to have to get rid of that motherboard it doesn't support the i5 whatsoever.

I would keep the x6,then upgrade the ram to 4-8gb and get the best gpu that you can afford since you won't be able to sli/crossfire with that board.What's your budget what x6 is it?
