If I did get an Intel I would have to get a new Motherboard. How does this combo mobo/cpu look to you? Is it alot better than my AMD Athlon X2 5600+ and the previously mentioned upgrades?

P.S. how do I know if this motherboard is PCI-E 2.0? I have the BFG Geforce 8800 GT OC2 and it's PCI-E 2.0 and right now I'm running it in a 1.1 slot (I think, but I know it's not 2.0) so I'm missing out on a lot of speed. Is this motherboard 2.0?

thanks again for the continued help
