    I personally am not a fan of Sandy Bridge, however, for the price it's good.

    I'd spend the extra $30 for the 3770K so you can overclock it.. But if you don't plan on OC'ing it really then the 3820 is fine, make sure you get XMP compatible DDR3 1600 ram.

    Like this, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820226186

    if it weren't discontinued.
