Right I'm ready to order.

Going to go down the 805 route but before I order any care to give me in real money the expected speed difference on using the E6300 over the 805. I'd much prefer to have an extra hard drive in there using up the money.

I plan to get back into gaming but mainly it's used as a video encoding / web dev work horse. FYI on this p4 2.8 with 512mb it takes upwards of 4 hours to convert a rat dvd. :-( I can batch them up and set them off overnight then through the day whilst at work so I normally never notice the time they take.
