AM3 is only like $25.00 bux more in my case. IMO it might be worth it for the future.

It's a Phenom II X3 which isn't a quad core. It's a tri-core. I'd suggest going Setup 1 because DDR3 will eventually become the accepted mainstream memory standard. I'd also recommend the Phenom II X4 810 instead of the 710.

future is with AMD 8 series chips equipped with SATA3 tech and new IGP's the AMD 7 series is meant for AM2/AM2+..so IMHO i'll settle with the AM2+ build with the patriot vipers or corsairs and wait till Q4 for the new AMD 8 series chips.. as of now the 790 series chips for AM3 still performs the same with the AM2+ series..so shifting at this time is still not practical..
