socket 939 wont work with DDR2. You'll need an AM2 chip and AM2 mobo. 300W is too low, go for a 450ish.
Well AM3 will use the same socket as AM2 apparently so that's a lot of future-proofing right there...
Chaging specs to Asus M2N-E Socket AM2 NF570ULTRA Audio Lan USB2 2000FSB SATA ATX Athlon 64 3800 box 2.4GHz AM2 940 pin Kingston Value Ram 533MHz DDR2 Non-ECC CL4 DIMM (Kit of 2) Any opinions on the above?
