Yup.... but at $1150 for the cpu and $500 for the GPU and $500 more for the RAM, I think I will wait for a few weeks and the price drops to something that even a teacher can afford... 
Strange to notice that the mother board is only $189.....lol
But it gives you one hell of a kick ass machine for about w2.5 million...
Beats the hell out of spending 2 million on a laptop...
yup, yup.. Let the drooling begin. |

Meh....
Gimme the cheaper one and lets overclock that baby. More to be gained from a good FSB hike than from a higher clock at spec.
These dual cores....I wonder how they will do in the o/c? Guess we just have to wait and see. The Northwoods were superb.... |

| a couple of weeks ago on Cnet I saw that AMD will be releasing quad-core chips first quarter 2007. I'm planning on assembling a new computer late summer next year so hopefully the price drops enough that I can get a quad-core instead of a dual core. |
