Reply: (edit)Before doing anything, read this: http://www.computing.net/cpus/wwwboard/forum/12855.html Get a board based on the nForce4 Ultra or nForce4 SLi chipset. If you don't plan on ever running 2 video cards in SLi, there's no point paying for it. Look at what's being offered by DFI (LANPARTY or INFINITY series) or MSI Hellz Yea!

Reply: (edit)If you are looking for something very stable and easily overclockable, definitely go with DFI. ChiefValue currently has a DFI LanParty UT nF4-D for $117.99 shipped to your door.

Reply: (edit)Dell? More like move over any namebrand pc, because custom made is the way to go. Namebrand pc's are for people that can't build pc's. AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+
