I was just woundering what would be better
Gigabyte GA-K8N Ultra-9 AMD Socket 939 ATX Motherboard & Gigabyte TurboForce GeForce 6600 128MB PCI-E Video Card Bundle- for $235
or
ECS NFORCE4-A939 NVIDIA nForce4 Single Chip Chipset 2000 MT/s FSB Dual Channel DDR400 Socket 939 ATX Motherboard for AMD Athlon64/ 64 FX with PCI-Express 16x, GbLAN, SATA, RAID, 6 Channel Audio, USB 2.0 with a-Leadtek 6600GT GeForce 6600 GT 128MB DDR3 SLI Multi-GPU Ready PCI-Express 16X Video Card with DVI, VGA, HDTV-Out, DirectX 9.0(wich includes far cry with it)-for-$259
Im thinking the second one is a better deal since it has the 6600gt, but im just woundering if the mobo will be fine with that card or do i need a different mobo?
thanks.

Go with the 6600GT. The ECS board should be fine...the reviews on it are very good:

k thanks, i have a question. I have decided to build a pc of my own ( what a shock!) So i picked out all my parts(i think) and it came to under $1000 WITH a monitor. :) so i was woundering what kind of wires, connectors, and all that stuff i would need.

Also does the mobo determin what kinda of RAM(240pin or 184pin)? Because i found that th e240 pin is to expensive for me, and i can get a gig of 184 for under $100

Judging from your recent questions, including the one above, you're not ready to build your own yet. You need to do some reading & learning 1st...& I don't mean just a "how to build" manual. You need learn theory about what works with what, & why.

Definitely dude. You should probably get someone who knows the trial and error PC building before you spend mucho deniro!

Try Cyperpower PC.
