the motherboard is feature rich and has alot to offer, i consider it to be one of the best amd based mobos out there, although i think if u can increase your budget then you should go for a processor with a bit more ooomph, you can probably pick up a amd fx 51 for a cheap price on ebay, or if you really want a new processor then the amd 64+ 3500 or 3700 would be better as they are alot faster and i think they have improved on chip cache. Overall if you cant afford more then i think your purchase is quite good although i still think the processor is a little weak (depends wat u are using it for  ).

Yeah, good config but to make sure it will be easily upgradeable get a board which supports DDRII and also don't forget PCI-E if you are a gamer. The newer SATA drives come with 300MBps traansfer. What are you going to do about all these???

What are you going to do about all these??? i couldn't get a better motherboard (the one supporting DDR2 and PCI-E)..because then i would have to change my graphics card and memory....which would cost a lot more... ....besides...there are still not motherboards for A64 that support DDR2.... and PCI-E isn't much better then AGP 8x;)

Do you know his configuration? That's enough for now. Anyway he has to spend money. He can do it later or now. That's his choice, depends on this needs now.

Abit A8N Fatal1ty A64 3500+ Win Gainward 6600GT.... ..ahhh that is more than enought for a long time I think. Here a 9800 costs as much as a fully built PC. You are very lucky. Ok if you are satisfied than go for it.
