I am planning to get a Core 2 Duo E6400 for the new computer I am building. But I arrived at a motherboard dilemma. For ~335 US dollars at this place I can get a E6400 and this motherboard (http://tinyurl.com/34nzx4).
For 215 dollars at the same place, an E6400 comes with this mobo (http://tinyurl.com/24q3at)
My question is does the additional cost (quite large if you ask me) of the first ASUS mobo make it worthwhile or should I save the money and go for the second option. Or if both are not that great, which motherboard should I get? I plan to have a 300 GB seagate HD, GeForce 7 card (either 7600 or 7900) and 2 GB of ram. Thanks in advance.
