Default Secondary 9950 Rig
I am planning on making a secondary rig (for family use) with the 9850 BE any suggestions ?. Please try and keep the rig under 4,000 as it will not be the second "crystall skull".

under $4,000

a) what do you need? Tower? Monitor?
b) purpose?
c) probably 1500 is more than enough of a budget
d) I assume you're dedicated to AMD.

Yes gaming can be used on it. I will probably get a 22" or 20" LCD. If friends do decide to come over and play some games this comp will be used (instead of main rig )

What about an Asus Crosshair II or an M3A2-MVP/Wi-Fi ?. Chozart that looks like an excellent setup except for the motherboard and maybe case.
