Hey guys

I'm looking to upgrade my CPU, mobo and probably ram.

Current setup

CPU: Intel E6550
Mobo: Asus P5K
Ram: 2x Corsair CM2X2048-6400C5DHX (4GB total)

I'm completely out of the loop in terms of mobo, cpu and ram nowadays. I'm looking at the AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition because it can be had at ~$112 right now. What's a good mobo & ram to go with it? I'm trying to keep the cost as low as possible without sacrificing performance (too much).
