Get this motherboard -

And with the money you save get this PSU -

And this CPU cooler will do just fine -

well, maybe this defeats the purpose of getting the cost down, but is the support for DDR3 ram needed or will I have a whole new computer by the time that stuff is used?harrisi17

DDR2 is still going to be used for a good while now. And by the time DDR3 RAM is the regular, you'll have enough money for five of those motherboards.

You dont need the DDR3 support now.. dunno when it will become standard.

Dont get Vista Ultimate unless you need it, maybe change the E6750 to an E6550 and overclock? Or just leave it stock..

A few suggestions:

-Grab the e6750 at mwave for $199

-Grab Abit ip35 at mwave for 137.50-25 = 112.50 ($25 rebate)

- Grab OCZpc6400 at Frys 79.99
