ok my mate has asked me to fix his pc. He got it before core duos came out. He has amd AM2 mobo, 4200x2 cpu, 2gb Geil 6400 memory, 7600gt gfx
so i could get a cheap am2 mobo for around £50 and have it up & running but i said for a small investment he could double the speed of his machine. VALUE is the name of the game whats best for £100-130 total mobo/cpu combo? ( no i7 or x58 suggestions please way too much)
I was thinking changing him to intel i have core duo nice o/c those chips are rapid. My board is a p965 ive been out the hardware game for a while so dont know whats decent these days.
P43 mobo + e5300 any good ?
any other options to consider? phenom/am3?
