I am looking to build a new system and dont know what to look for. I would like to spend around 150 for the motherboard and cpu. I want something that I can over clock and that is fast. I like to play games like Halo and watch movies. i dont have a lot of money, I have build some in the past but its been a while. If anyone could throw some suggestions out there on what is a good combo I would appriciate it. Thanks Tony

Well, since you like to play games, then I would go with an Athlon processor. 150 dollars isn't enough for a dual core processor, so I'd go with just a single core one. Newegg has a lot of good AMD processors that are very cheap. You can easily find a processor + Motherboard from there that are around 150 dollars total.
