http://www.extremetech.com/article2/...1822693,00.asp

Im building this system and would like opinions in what to change or improve
if needed...I would like to stay within the same budget. Also will this
mothreboard take the regular ATA hard drives....I havent keep up with the
new every day changes in hardware formats.... SATA, ??
DDR???
This will be a regular use machine, email, internet, but I do play games
every now and then. Just want to have a system that will perform with the
latest games for some time before upgrades...
thanks

Yes, is good value system, can also take faster/dual core CPU for future
improvement and better PCI-Express card if required.
