Q2 is perfect. That give me sometimes to save up some $$$ for next upgrade.

I cant wait for AM3+ socket for my next build, I am still bitter that Intel yet again is making me change sockets. At least with AMD they give some backwards compatibility.

the fun thing is your am3 processer will work in am3+ sockets however the am3+ cpu is not backwards compatible
