Whats the budget in U.S.?

That board that hostiledonut suggested has everything you want except for the 7.1 audio.Still tho,for $90 and dual x8 pci express plus the SATA III thats a really really good mobo for the price.

 

[aasifdm]

atleast 2 sata ports i require. budget is around 120 bucks.


guys what is this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130618

its gtx 460 cheaper than hd 6850. what u think ?

 

[purple stain]

That a Recertified item.Don't know why but they list the Orignial price as $350 which is way off.The 6850 is faster than the GTX460,consumes less power and makes less heat all while performing better.Don't get the GTX460 if your already set on the 6850.

ASRock 870 Extreme3 has SATA 6gb ports, two x8 CF support, etc. It just doesn't have the 7.1 tat you want. Some hd6850s have it though.

seems good option for what i demand. guys is it good to buy my hardware online or the nearest shop in...?

 

[shrkbay]

sometimes buying online will save you a couple of bucks, but buying in nearest shop will save you shipping taxes..

The AMD Phenom 925 has a clock speed of 2.8Ghz and a lower power usage(95W TDP) where as the Phenom II 955 has a higher clock speed of 3.2 Ghz, and a higher power usage (125W TDP). In a Nutshell; the Phenom II 925 uses less power but performs worse, and the phenom uses more power and performs(by quite a bit) better.
