I use an amd gigabyte motherboard. I would go with it. My first one was DoA, but my second has been going non stop for over a week. With minimal reboots for windows updates after I installed everything.

Im kinda having second thoughts on this now.. I have a pretty decent computer, but alot of people i know have been getting i5/i7's and i guess i kinda wanted one too. I have an anthlon x2 right now, should i just get a Phenom II X4 instead of making an intel pc?

Yes, you should. You really, really should. I'm very happy you came to this conclusion on your own.

Things that you don't need.
hyper threading ,QPI shit, triple channel memory, and more shits that doesn't fit for normal day uses.
Gaeming > Phenom II X4 955, 555, 965, or i5 at most.
Workstation > i7 and shits

The Core i7 are the current top of the line of CPUs, but that does not mean you will have to get them just because all of your friends got it.

Well, the i7 is currently the most powerful CPU on the market. However, no game will use it's full potential. A Phenom II X4 will have similar performance to an i7 in a game.

Maybe one.
Code:
 Metro 2033 requirement

Quote:

Minimum:

* Dual core CPU (any Core 2 Duo or better will do)
* DirectX 9, Shader Model 3 compliant graphics cards (GeForce 8800, GeForce GT220 and above)
* 1GB RAM

Recommended:

* Any Quad Core or 3.0+ GHz Dual Core CPU
* DirectX 10 compliant graphics card (GeForce GTX 260 and above)
* 2GB RAM

Optimum:

* Core i7 CPU
* NVIDIA DirectX 11 compliant graphics card (GeForce GTX 480 and 470) Do aware this gaem uses PhyX, but 5xxx cards can be use with another phyX card using hacked/older driver
* As much RAM as possible (8GB+)
* Fast HDD or SSD


Or you can play the downscaled version on your console.

Recommended will already be more than enough. I'm still used to playing games on low from my old computer, playing them on highest settings is something I'm still getting used to. If I have so much as one instance of low framerate, even for a second, I turn settings down a notch. I also never do AA or whatever the other thing is that doesn't exactly increase visuals but kind of does.
