Which of these two systems would be a better choice? I am planning on upgrading from a 478 Celeron 2.0 processor with 512mb memory and an old MX 440 vid card.
Heres the run down.
#1 Gigabyte DS3 mobo (P965), 2 gig of Kingston DDR2 memory, eVGA 7950gt ko 512mb, C2D E6300, for 803.67 shipped
#2 Gigabyte AM2 nForce 570 SLi mobo, Same Memory^, AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200= windsor 2.2GHz, and 2 x eVGA Geforce 7900GS 256MB KO. $888.39 shipped.
I am looking for a good system that would definitly last for 4/5 years without many upgrades if any like my pervious ones. I also wanna be able to play a lot of newer games that may come out in the future. Also i already have 2 Seagate 160gb SATA II HDD and i am looking at a psu from a guy on a forum as well as i am going to to take my DVD/CDRW combo out of old pc.
(if this is in wrong Forum please move, and i am sorry i am a noob to this forum)
