You can't beat it..

AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ - Athlon 64 X2 Windsor Dual-Core 2.2 GHz Socket AM2 89W Processor - ADA4200CUBOX
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ - Athlon 64 X2 Windsor Dual-Core 2.2 GHz Socket AM2 89W Processor - ADA4200CUBOX

Pros: I overclocked this beauty to be like the 4600+ (2.4Ghz). It is running really stable with only a few degrees hotter. I have a wondderful setup with the new fan for AM2 made by Zalman (CNPS9500 AM2) and the CPU doesn't go over 40c.

Cons: None..

Overall Review: AMD has awesome CPU's. Upgrading now is a great idea.

G.SKILL PI = Awesome memory

G.SKILL PI Black 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model F2-6400CL4D-4GBPI-B
G.SKILL PI Black 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model F2-6400CL4D-4GBPI-B

Pros: I am a new g.skill fan, totally reliable and amazing performance.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: I used to only buy Corsair memory but I recently bought 2 2GB sticks which died after 4 hours, so I returned them and thought I'd give g.skill a chance. I was not disappointment - to say the least.

ASUS M2N-E AM2 NVIDIA nForce 570 Ultra MCP ATX AMD Motherboard

Pros: This motherboard took my breath away the first time I saw it and it still does. The quality is superb. I used to be an MSI-only guy; but now, ASUS quality is beyond comparison to anything.

Cons: None...

Overall Review: Stick a pair of 1GB Corsair XMS2's (2 x 1GB) on this baby and enjoy the ride.

Wow.. just wow..

Pros: Amazing price for amazing memory. This is my first pair of DDR2 memory. (I switched to socket AM2 recently) And I just have to say that this is probably the best memory I have ever owned.

Cons: Absolutely none.

Overall Review: Match it with an AM2 CPU and watch the thing fly.
