    Greetings.

    It looks like in about a month or two I will be upgrading. I currently own an AMD 2400. I have been out of the loop as far as hardware upgrades in the last two years. I used to be pretty informed but I have no idea what the current state of hardware regarding motherboards and processors and stuff is.

    I am looking to spend maybe $275 - $300 for a motherboard, gig of ram, and processor. It looks like the AMD 64 3400 would fit the bill. I was looking to buy a board/processor that I toy with as far as overclocking. Not extreme overclocking - but just one to tinker with.

    Why the big difference in price between the 3400 and the 3500?

    So, can anyone give me a reccomendation for a good motherboard and processor combo ?

    Thanks.
