I got busy and never ordered the rest of the parts for my new system that I wanted to build late last year, but now the time has finally come very close to do it.
Whats the current best mainboard and CPU to get? I'm thinking about spending between $150 to $250(US) for the mainboard and around $250 to $400(US) for the CPU.
This system will be used for video games and general purposes, it will be replacing my current main system that has a 3ghz P4 CPU at stock thats overclocked 15% and I'm using one of the 2 BFG GeForce 7800GT video cards that will be going into the new system for SLI. I want something that will run circles around what I already have. I'm also considering water cooling the CPU but I'm not going to spend much over $200 to do it and perferably less. I'm new to water cooling so I don't know what to use or even what the price ranges are.
