yeah, well, I don't upgrade very often. I can't believe it's already been four years. I mean my machine is still humming along quite nicely, I just want to add more RAM and can't with this muthaboard. So it's probably time to start fresh anyway. What I'm saying is that chances are, by the time I want to upgrade a chip, I'm probably going to need another motherboard, too.
but the cost isn't that big a deal. the processors cost the same (920 and 860). Looks like a 1366 board are maybe $100 more. once I have 8GB RAM and a good fan, that's not going to be a big deal. So I just want the best set up.
Oh, and it's got to work with the GPU I recently got - Radeon 4850. That won't be a problem, right? It's PCIe and there's a slot on both of these boards, as far as I can tell.
