I haven't kept up with any of the latest tech and price drops recently since I've been very busy with work. I have a month off for vacation and I'd like to put together a second gaming computer so a buddy that has time off with me can LAN together. We mostly play Battlefield 2 and Quake 4, sometimes some Civ. 4.

This computer will be used purely for gaming so I don't need dual core.

I'd like to put together something thats under $150 for the motherboard and CPU (and aftermarket HS/F if necessary). I have 1 GB of PC3200 and all the other junk like PSU, case, hardrives, video card, etc

What would you guys recommend for a decent overclocking combo for right around $150? Thanks for the help.
 
If you wanna put that ram to good use and get a good single core value i'd reccomend the 939 3200+ amd with the rest of the budget money get a good brand motherboard that meets your needs.
 
What video card do you intend to use with your new motheboard?
 
too bad you have ddr already... AM2 semprons are nifty. got mine up to 2.95ghz without too much effort :p
