ok, I'm planning on upgrtading my current rig's mobo psu and proc. I was really looking into this processor and first of all, I know Ghz aren't everything but I'm just wondering, would I see a significant improvement over my 2800+ Barton?
Also, I have an nvidia GeForce 6600, and 3 IDE HDDs that I would like to keep so the mobo would need to support 939 and have an AGP slot, and 2 PATA slots, and when I put those specs into newegg I only get 2 options and the biostar seems to have issues with the agp slot and the other one has a difficult layout and I've had a mobo like that before and I'd much rather just not have to deal with it again...so are there any other options or is the Biostar my best bet?
And finally the last question, I've been using the stock psu that came with my case for 2.5 years so I'm looking for one that would be able to power reliably, 3 hdds, 1 DVD burner, 2-3 fans, and the mobo and proc listed above, and since I'm clueless about psu's I'm looking for some suggestions.
