Other than price, is there any need for you to go with that motherboard?


A P45 series motherboard will give you a lot higher headroom if you plan to overclock.

Id go amd for say a 955 if you're on a budget and don't want to go i7, also try n go for the antec 902 if you can for the dust filters and definitely get 64bit instead of 32bit as you have 4gb. Could even download the w7 rc and preorder the full version for £50 instead of getting vista.

Just some ideas

By the way what are you building it for? Gaming, encoding, rendering?

Why not jus go with the cheapest 1gb 4870?
