So its finally the time to upgrade my aging rig as well as fixing my soon-to-die HD. This is what I chose so far:
CPU: Intel E8300 (http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=179352)
Mobo: Gigabyte P31-S3G (http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Products/Motherboard/Products_Overview.aspx?ProductID=2676)
RAM: 2x1GB OCZ Reaper HPC Edition (DDR2 800) (http://www.ocztechnology.com/products/memory/ocz_ddr2_pc2_6400_reaper_hpc_edition)
Total: 1404 Israeli shekels = 447.989724 U.S. dollars
------
So far so good, BUT I have a choice of other components, so I'd like to hear what you guys think.
