Hello guys & gals. ;)
If you were me, which one of the next setups you would go for?

A64 3200+ (ClawHammer CG)
Epox EP-8KDA3#
### Radeon X800XT-PE

OR

A64 3500+ (I'll get the newest week out there)
MSI K8N NEO2 Platinum
### Radeon X800PRO VIVO (I think GigaByte's one)

MEM will be EB-3700, if I won't be able to find any i'll go Crucial's Ballistix. PSU will be Enermax 460W, but short after i'll switch to Forton's 530W. HDD will be WD's Caviar SE.

Thanks for the replies, I really appreciate that ! :) :p:

Buy, the 3500+ its more overclockable, and I would take the Asus X800Pro Vivo, the mobo I dont know.

I'd go with the first one, just replace the Epox with the MSI

Get a board with working PCI/AGP locks.

OK so I won't go with that A8V, I'll go for the K8N Neo2 Plat.
