It's gonna be a while before the Athlon 64's make any big price drops. The only thing I'd even consider getting anytime soon is the Athlon 64 3200 which isn't as powerful as the FX-51.
If you were gonna go ahead and upgrade to that, I would go ahead and do it. Well...it depends. What are you using now? If your current PC is decent, then I would wait. But if it's outdated and you want to play games that are coming out, then go ahead and get that setup. Which videocard are you looking at? With that setup, a good videocard is essential.
Another motherboard suggestion is the Abit NF7-S Revision 2.0. It has extremely nice SoundStorm audio.
