Both the Q6600 and 9800GTX are consuming pretty much the same, if not more power from the PSU then the parts you're thinking of getting*, so investing in a new one wouldn't make so much of a difference. If I go from a site like Newegg; the following would be a nice upgrade, within budget. Intel Core i7 2600 - $300 Asus P8P67 LE(v3) - $133 Kingston ValueRAM 2x4GB $43 Total: $476 Obviously a similar set can be made with an AMD Phenom II X6 processor, but from personal experience going from such CPU to the i7 2600, the Intel platform wins in performance. Heck, I hardly felt any difference when I originally upgraded from my Q6600 to the AMD Phenom II X6 (1100T). edit; if you settle for an i5 (eg 2500), which is still pretty good, or similarly from the AMD platform, you can squeeze in your beloved SSD with maybe just a margin over the $500 line; since the i5 is around $200. * eg; Q6600 has a TDP of 105, while the i7 2600 has one of 95W and has more clockdown/saving-features.

Mine doesn't need sh*t like that :p nice and standard and it looks cool already.

Well, I swapped cars and finally got something decent to show Specifications: Nissan 100NX 1.6, 1996. 154,600km @ purchase (96,063.9863 miles) 102BHP/75kW (injection) Consumption: ~ 1:12.5, 7.89l/100km *awesome feature; one can take the roofpanels off; awwwyeh.

I'll be as tactful and civil as I possibly can... don't waste my time with your nonsense Crash. I am neither in the mood, or even remotely laughing.

Both have their right to exist. i7's might perform better, but Phenom II's are not that far behind and performs very well for its lower pricetag.

Peels here!

Oh hai!

Wooh! Welcome :> and have fun!

Yes it would, it's how I had received mine in 2009 when I met up with Damion, Bunny and Trinity :D

It is indeed pretty close; * August 17 - 21, 2011 * Maritim Hotel Magdeburg, Germany Sadly it's on the other side of Germany from my end though. And the registration fee is quite high, if I compare it to cons like AC, RF or MFF. Anyhows, this sounds like a very nice idea for european members which can't make it to cons like AC :D

Oh wow, that's like right before I have to hit the road towards the airport, hahah. So excuse me if I can't make it

^ shu'up zanndor. nobody likes you either <3 < is freakin' awesome! v hi5! bro!

"BT, ma'am/sir... if you are unwilling to give me a proper internet experience from your service I am more then willing to switch over to one of your competitors. Now... how about it?" *hope yer able to, if they keep giving shitty service like that.

Oooh, like that. Had that once. Serverroom had a room temperature of 45~50 degrees. Felt like summer in there. Whoops :o

Tell them to suck it up and use a fan :P

Anyone staying till the 28th? I'd rather go along with someone to the airport or with their wheels instead of on my own c.c

HAI! :O

I'm sure everyone has their with foreign currency, Kastrenzo :P *has two 2-dollar bills himself, teh awesome*

And ofcourse the hardworking mouse behind the counter, keeping everything in check with a .44 was just outside the view of the video ;.;
