I will use this for almost everything (Gaming, Multi-tasking etc.)
Sorry guys I have a really tight budget and limited hardware choices (So please don't recommend me other hardware)
Right now I am in a corner talking to myself not knowing what do do next.
It's either Better Processor but less MoBo (Build 1) or Better MoBo but less Processor (Build 2)

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ANSWERS

First off are you going to be using window 7? If so I would have to reccomend more then 2gb windows 7 usally takes 1.5gb in the background just for the os alone. In this case you would have to disable features to have it even playable.

Build 1 is going to be a better build it just needs more ram. x6 are better for multi tasking then the x4 is but then again the x6 will not do much better in games then the x4, also i would get a gts 450 1gb over a 768 mb gtx 460 its going to be the same price or cheaper.

to save 20$ go with a open box
