Hi guys,
I've been having a browse around the popular auction site and it seems that socket 939 parts are still fetching absolutely stupid money! My cpu would probably fetch around £100
My ram I've just seen someone on there sell for £60. I could probably get around £200 in total if I'm lucky.
What quad core system could I get for £200-£250?
The Q6600 seem to go on MM for around £100, so that would leave ram and a good motherboard. What can I get for this budget?
Is it worth upgrading now for a decent system that can last me a good year or two, bearing in mind that I will probably break even and it shouldn't cost me more then £50.
Really need motherboard suggestions, something solid, I've always gone with Abit and Asus in the past and they have been good. I use vista 64 anyway so 4GB ram would be useful, maybe I could squeeze in 8GB?
