I am building a system around the AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 6000+ 3.00GHz

I have TFT, HD, sound card & GFX already.

What budget mobo and ram would be best please?

So you already have that CPU? if not save the hassle an buy the Q6600 and work around that

sigh at the usual Intel ramblings...

I use a GIGABYTE GA-M57SLI-S4 for my X2 and it's fantastic. Was pretty cheap but it's a quality board. As for RAM....you can't go far wrong whatever you choose - just go for the cheapest you can find. And enjoy the X2 6000 - it's an awesome chip

How are they ramblings, Intel clearly win through and through with CPU's, its good advice not rambling. Thanks.
