Upgrading Motherboard, need suggestions

How are their prices so much cheaper? It makes no sense. These are exactly the same but one is $50 more. http://ncix.com/products/index...76-AR&manufacture=eVGA http://www.newegg.ca/Product/P...x?Item=N82E16814130380 I wonder how much shipping is though, because its usually only $10...

Upgrading Motherboard, need suggestions

Here is my current set up, I want to buy a new video card but my motherboard is lacking so I think I should probably get a new motherboard at the same time as getting a new video card. Mobo: Asus M2N-MX SE CPU: Amd athlon 64 x2 6000+ GPU: Geforce 7600GT HD: Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 160GB...

I really want an 8800GT but

Oh I never look under weekly specials, I just look under video cards. And no I don't want to spend all $200, less money is of course better.

I really want an 8800GT but

Here is my current situation, I am slowly updating my hardware and am buying a new video card soon. I have around $200 to spend on ncix.com but most of the 8800GTs I see are around $230 and the ones under $200 don't look very good. The only games I am playing are World Of Warcraft, Counter...

Best 500W PSU

Nevermind about it being out of stock, they have 4 of them in stock, I doubt there are going to be 3 other people ordering this item before me.

Best 500W PSU

Thanks, looks like a great deal. I am also looking to upgrade my video card to a 8800GT, does this have the proper connections for the heatsink/fan on the card? I am also running 4 fans using molex connectors.

So should I get a new video card or psu?

Well I just realized I am going to have $200 now, and I still need to choose new parts. Can anyone put together a little list of exact parts I need? The video card will only be used for playing World Of Warcraft and Counter Strike: Source No overclocking will be done so I probably don't...

Yeah that looks like what going to have to be done, I just don't know if I should consider a new motherboard. The current one is a pretty bad gaming board, it only has 2 dimm slots. What wattage for psu are we looking at here? I can probably just get a 450-500W and be fine right? No OCing...
