New S939 cpu?

[3dcandy]

Hi all,
Just wondering on your thoughts of what socket 939 chip to go with.
After an Abit AV8-3rd Eye so I can keep my good old Radeon X800 Pro for now.
Just a little confused, don't want to spend a whole load of cash, won't be overclocked (much) and needs to run nearly 24/7.

Will be used in my workstation, bit of video encoding, bit of games, bit of music work.

Cheers!
Ade

Not really decided....was gonna get the AV8 because it's on special this week
Also was considering going 2nd hand for now, any recommendations?

Yeah, tis true, but not going the auction site route, more likely from the MM here.
My main system is getting a little old now, Athlon @ 2ghz with 1 gig ram.
I need to upgrade, but at not too great a price.

Still working through my spare stuff to flog off....lol

MM = Members Market

micromart - there are restrictions on being able to access the members mart, have a looksy around and you'll find out what they are. It's a number of posts count for starters...

Yup, I agree with the neg feedback thing, but if someone says it's tested ok then you should have no worries about giving them neg if it is DOA surely???

Micromart, now worries buddy, get posting and you can join in the fun!
