Hi all,

I was given a Gigabyte P35-DS3P board just tday and thinking of building a secondary pc which will be used for some casual LAN gaming, web-surfing and microsoft office stuff. Havent really tried testing if its working or not, but Im pretty sure it does. Unfortunately, theres no drivers CD, but I can get that from gigabyte's web. Ive got a spare case that I can use for this build and wish to spend around $3 - 400. Will it be worthwhile using 775 since Ive got a free mobo?


Cheers,
CoHmS.

UPDATE2:

I got my PSU this morning. Tested all the parts, and everything's working fine. So, I would decide on what I want to do with modding the case. Id like to post a modding log too if I can.

edit: so my mate is keeping his 9800gtx+ cause he's getting a new psu. Qwik Kuestion, will my system bottleneck a gtx560? I will be OCing my processor to balance it out.

Cheers.
