Thanks all for the suggestions thus far. A healthy debate is always welcome, gives me more options to consider.
I believe the CPU is a 3000+ (dont have PC in front of me). I do have the same sentiments as others mentioned that such old hardware in a great case just doesnt feel right. However at this stage cost is an issue.
The a8-3850 is a little out of my price range, so I guess I could just wait it out a bit and save up and get the new hardware.
Would buying an atom-based board and using it together with my current GPU be non-sensical at this stage?
