what would you guys pick out of these: Bear in mind the Intels dont come with ram so you need to buy that also....:

Asus Intel 2nd Generation P67 Bundle (Includes P8P67 PRO Motherboard & Core i5-2500 3.30GHz Processor) (NO RAM INCLUDED)
£300.06

or

Asus AMD Gamer Bundle (Includes M4A87TD EVO Motherboard, AMD Phenom II X6 1090T Black Edition 3.2Ghz & 4GB DDR3)
£269.98

or

Asus Intel Performance Bundle (Includes Asus P7P55D-E LX Motherboard & Intel Core i5 760 2.8 GHz CPU) (NO RAM INCLUDED)
£244.98

or

Asus AMD Ultimate Bundle (Includes M4A77T Motherboard, Phenom II X4 955 3.2 Ghz & 4GB DDR3 [2x2GB] Memory)
£240.00

Look at it in terms of bang per buck please, as im on a very tight budget. And im not into Overclocking, i like my processors to last many years.

My Current specs are within the min requirements to run IL2CoD but im looking to run it okay in the long term.
Currently ive got AMD X2 4200+ 2.2Ghz, 2GB DDR2 on Vista. New PC build will get Win7 for it. I already have 900W PSU so that not an issue.

2500k all the way. Not only do they overclock like a SOB, but the onboard gpu helps alot. AMD is sure to copy the idea soon enough be sure...

Thanks, how would an onboard GPU help? would the onboard GPU be usable? i.e. as good as a GTX 460? If not then, would it have similar problems that most Mobos have when you have an onboard sound and a sound card, you end up with conflicts unless you disable the onboard sound completeley.
