whats the benefit of goin am2 rather than 939, iv done a bit of research and i have heard mixed reviews. Also how does the FSP Sparkle AX500 compare to the seasonic psu in terms of noise as i want it to be fairly quiet.

good spec tho, considering it. what DDR2 RAM would you recommend with that that spec, and how would it cope if i decided to oc it.
