At first I was going with the Kuma but decided to get the 5200. It OC's higher and doesn't run as hot. It might be $20 more but thats worth it IMO. I'm going to jump on a great deal I found on Newegg, 4850 for $85 after MIR and promo code. It would only be $5 more than a 4830. Yes, please!

I was looking through newegg and found the 4850 for $85 with promo code and MIR. If I don't get it within the next 4 days, I'll definitely go for the one Verran showed me. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16814102824

So, if I go with a P43 UD3L instead of the P45 UD3R I picked, I should be fine right? The CPU will OC just as well?
-
Oh, someone mentioned the 4770 just wondering if that would fit in better than the 4830. I'm only going to OC the CPU.

Nice! Good find. Is there a cheaper mobo that I can get that will work as well as the UD3R? I don't have a preference, but Gigabyte seems to make better mobos.

I plan to only lap the CPU. I don't need to play games at the highest settings available, just high enough to enjoy the game. I would really like to spend as less as possible, so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. This all runs to about $550. Add a monitor and extras, its about $700. What do you guys think? Anywhere I can save money? Should I go with DDR2 1066 instead of DDR2 800 RAM?
