Hey fellas,

I was originally planning on a new build in January around a Nehalem, then two things happened:

1. I realised I cant afford a new build until the end of next year
2. My mobo died.

At the moment I'm running a cheap 939 asrock mobo with a 3800+ X2 and an ocuk x1950

So i need a new mobo and the x1950 doesnt cut the mustard any more so ill get upping my gfx, that way i can keep this PC running for a while longer.

My questions are this: given that 939 is now pretty old, and im looking to spend ~300GBP would you:

1. Any 939 mobo, high-end new graphics
2. Decent Intel mobo, Decent Intel processor, decent new graphics.

Cheers,

Pete
