Try this Gigabyte motherboard it rocks!
or just search for am3 motherboards...i recommend this tho!
I command my new rig from directcanada.com and I wanted to know what the Chipset Model means ? The one you told me about wasn't on this site, so can this one do the job ? http://www.directcanada.com/products/?sku=10530BD6329&vpn=M4N68T-M&manufacture=ASUS If this doesn't do the job can you tell me when I'm suppose to have to make it a good motherboard (except the am3 reference) Thks a lot !!

well, this mobo is good, altho make sure that in the specs it sais that it supports phenom II x4...also what is ur case? since this mobo is for micro atx cases.
chipset model is the onboard grafx model which i don't recommend depending on for dolphin...my 6150se is a prime example Tongue
My new rig should look like this :

Processor: AMD Phenom II x4 965BE
Graphic card: Radeon HD 5770
RAM: 4GB DDR2
PSU: 550W
Hard Drive: Seagate Barracuda 500GB
Computer case: Antec Two Hundred
OS: Windows 7 Professional

So is the one I show you good or not, if the onboard grafx model isn't good ? (What difference does that onboard grafx make) Thks in advance !!

the onboard grafx model is never good and it doesn't matter since you'll use a video card, the 5770, that means the onboard grafx won't be used.
yes, your pc is good, it's fine...how much will it cost you in total? including motherboard?
Not that high actually, 800$ (doesn't include OS 'cause here in quebec, when you reach university you get the free upgrade)

800$??? oh damn that's a lot!!! Tongue i would never go over 400$ on my rig...i'd go for the best bang per buck for each part. nonetheless that's your choice Smile

Ahahah oops forgot to add my monitor too Tongue You think that's a lot ? I can't keep anything from my old pc so I need to buy everything again, the processor is 210$, video card 160$, motherboard 55$, hard drive 50$, computer case 45$, psu 35$, monitor 130$ and RAM 80$.. I don't really think I overpay for any part and if so tell me which part ! From what I've read and been told the AMD Phenom II x4 965 BE is the best bang per buck.. I don't know for the other part tho..

well, i dunno but it matters from where you buy your stuff. i'd search at newegg too since it's prices are good. no i don't think anything is overpirced, i was talking about parts in overall...i was looking at the video card, and i thought it was a little too much but i'd say look at this list
Best Graphics Cards For The Money
$50 - HD 4650
$65 - HD 4670 / 9600 GSO
$85 - 9600 GT
$95 - 9600 GT / HD 4830
$110 - GTS 250 512 MB
$120 - GTS 250 1 GB
$155 - HD 5770 / GTX 260

You can get about 4Ghz with a good cooler with the 955BE.
I do have the X4 955BE @ 4 GHZ & HD5770, too, and my games are running at full speed, mostly with 8x MSAA.
So you won't make a bad choice with 'em Smile
