post your budget [editline]wfe[/editline] along with whether you need peripherals or not, and what the main use of this computer will be.
Spend the extra $20 and get a "new" motherboard, open box is too much of a risk. [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131647[/url]
budget 1200 i guess and a logitech mx performance, Logitech K340, and a samsung syncmaster 226cw

dont like the cpu cause with the amd i was gonna overclock to 4.2 (for no reason at all just to show off :)
90% of Sandy Bridges can be overclocked to 4.4GHz on stock cooling, and with a decent aftermarket heatsink you can probably hit 4.8, and maybe even 5.0 there you have no reason not to get a 2500K [editline]wefe[/editline] actually 5.0 might be too high; I'll say that with an aftermarket cooler you'll be looking more in the 4.5-4.7 GHz range
4.8 holy shit yeah ill look into that cpu
