Spec my bro a new CPU + Ram

[benjo]

Hey all

My brother wants to upgrade his CPU + Ram, he has a budget of £460

Do your best

CPU needs to be socket 939

P.S He uses his PC for gaming and graphics, so best to go X2?

Well at the moment, he wants to keep his X800XT-PE, so i suggested to him to get the ASRock Motherboard. So it'll be an X800XT-PE, a new CPU + Mobo + Ram
