I'm thinking of buying this octa-core AMD FX and this Gigabyte AM3+ motherboard to replace my aging AM2+ board and my Sempron 140 and I was thinking: Is this a good buy, or should I be happy with a hex-core AM2+/AM3 Phenom and stick with my current board? I'm also not sure can my PSU support it, but that shouldn't be a lot of money compared to these two. I'll be using this GPU
with it, my old 80GB Seagate HDD (SATA II? Can I use it?) with it, I know it's a huge drop compared to the processor but I don't need an extremely powerful GPU and I don't use much HDD space. BTW, 4GB of 401mhz RAM with it, bad buy IMHO, will replace. So, is it a good buy, or should I look at something else?
