My old board is working ok so im going to use it to build a pc for my kids. I got my pc sorted i got a asus p5n-d board with 3gb corsair ram and its running ok i hope.

3dmark gave me a score of 11489 so going to load my flight sim back on it with all add ons as soon as i install my second drive. Also going to get another 9600gt and run it in sli mode.
