    $600 Upgrade

    Definitely going to make the trip to Microcenter now. I can't seem to find the bundle deal for the mATX board though. Only see the one for the ASRock ATX Extreme. As for the Samsung vs Crucial is it worth the $10 extra?

    I'm sorry about that, I'll edit out. Maybe I'll keep the 6870 for now. Why nothing less than a 120GB? 1. Plan on playing the new Metro, right now SC2, BF3, New Vegas. 2. Fry's is about 45 minutes away. I would make the drive if it was worth it. 3. Home(7), Pro(8) both 64-bit 4. I can...

    Ah, ok. For some reason I thought the 6850 was better. The games would be mostly FPS. Some others like Mass Effect and Diablo 3. Thanks for all the information, much appreciated.

    Reusing a case. Would it be more beneficial to upgrade processor to i5 or video card to 6850? Is the Intel board that much better than a cheap Biostar? Never had an Intel board before.

    Cheap + Gaming?

    Ah, I see. That's very surprising that the Llano and 540m are comparable. After doing more research I've realized that I am going to need to drop some more cash to get what I want. I was looking at this...
