This intel quad build is only $60 more, and is either equal to or better than your AMD build in all catagories except for HD space

I like the build delta. Only thing I would change is the hdd, which I would go w/ a WD SE16 640gb. (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136218) Faster than that 7200.11 and for the price, it can't be beat. Other than that, solid build.

Why take the time to spam like that, I don't get it. I can assume your paid, can you not find a better job? Anybody else veiwing the thread (guests, members I assume know better) please don't click on the links for these guys, spyware and stuff like that awaits and perpetuates idiocy.

i reported it. They have posted this same thing across three threads. reported all of them recommended to the mods to remove their account.
Shame when people do this really spoils it.

oh and +1 on an intel quad build. but I cant see it, its asks me to login (I dont have an account) and chance of a screenie so we can see what you picked out?

I hope your not talking to me, all I did was post a link to my wish list on newegg. If there's spyware in my link, that's on newegg, not me.

Wasnt you, a spam post was posted after yours which has now been deleted. will take a look at those screenies now!

EDIT: Looks good if the Op can afford it. Especially seeing as there is a q9450 in there. best intel CPU without selling your right leg IMO. I;m getting one in a few weeks. cant wait. :D

lol, I'm actually reconsidering whether or not to get a q9450 now , lol! general feeling from people on here is that when my new cooler comes through it would be best to just OC my current cpu to 3.2 - 3.6Ghz. I now I wont be able to not upgrade to the new platform next year and quads arent worth it for 12months of use as two of the cores will sit there twiddling their thumbs on most games.

I need to keep some money back as an xbox 360 replacement pot.

Maybe for the OP an e8400 then a better gpu or something?
