The 8800GT would be the better choice. I remember Sam regretting his choice when his 3870 gave him so many problems.

The nearest MicroCenter is 50 miles in Tustin. They have them in stock, although I don't know how many. Given the population of this area, I would imagine they would have a number of them unless Intel is limiting how many of the E0 stepping they can get.
If you would like, order one on line from there and I will have it picked up for you and then ship it to you. Just tell them the Tustin CA store is where it will be picked up!
Best Regards,
Russ

boozer Patriot has been known to be "one" of those companies to avoid in the past. Have you had some experience with them or any friends?? Just curious as I'm not in the market for 4GB of RAM atm.. but it's not to far away me thinks. :)

Well I've never used it. It had good reviews on newegg so I didn't think it would have many problems.

The HD3870 was much better with later drivers (8.4 onwards) but that doesn't take from the fact it was noticeably slower than the 8800GT.

92 dollars, that's epic. The nearest competitor to it at stock is at least 20 bucks more.

Of course the E5200 does OC quite a bit... 4Ghz under decent air cooling.

The E5200 is a fair bit slower stock though, the E7200 is the comparison chip I used, and even then I'm not sure.

Gotta love overclocking :)
The E6750 is faster than a X2 6000+ from all the tests I have seen. That's at a stock 2.66Ghz.

Yes but when they stopped selling that it ran for $190. The 6000+ costs less than half that.

Yes, I know that. But the E5200 is cheaper than the 6000+ and OCs more.
*shrugs*
good deal anyway

less than $10 cheaper, and it's slower at stock. :)
Don't get me wrong, I'd build a system with an E5200 over a 6000+ because I'd just auto-clock it to 3Ghz and be done, but to say that the Intels are better chips isn't true for every environment.

Hmm, pin modding is something to look into. I know you can overclock the Q6600s to 3ghz even on non-OCable boards.
I have a Athlon XP(replacement for old celeron) 3200+ that I need to pin mod. get it up a few hundered mhz

$6 less than that with free shipping! $86 is amazing. OxiMoron may just get a face lift! LOL!! Nah! I'd put it in one of those good 780GX Biostar motherboards and have some fun!

Someone looking for a good quality 500w PSU, this is it! $29.99 with MIR.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817153028
I originally bought a Rev. 1.0, which lasted a month, and Newegg replaced it with the Rev. 2.0. Solid PSU that runs very quiet and cool. You would be very hard pressed to find a better PSU for the price!

Certainly a well priced unit, but call me superstitious, I don't like chances. Anyone who needs 500W gets a Corsair, anyone who doesn't gets an Earthwatts IMO.

I'll vouch for the Thermaltakes. I have used a 430W one in a computer with a oced 3.2ghz C2D and a 9600GT. It's been many months and the customer hasn't called back with any complaints.
