Ok decisions decisions.
Should i wait out the penryn and move my q6600 to my HTPC or just buy a 2180. Thinking the q6600 is probably overkill for a home theatre, but it would give me an excuse to buy a 9450
Next, i have SLI gt's and finding its really overkill for the games i play, so im probably goint to sell one card. Also my GTS 320 has 7 days left on the step up and is going to get traded in for a GT 512. Should i just hang on to the GT for the htpc or is that overkill. Thinking of selling the stepped up 8800 and just getting an 8600GT since it does HD encoding.
Third. I currently run corsair xms2 5-5-5-12 sticks that run fine at 4-4-4-12, and OCZ plats that are 4-4-4-15 that run fine at 4-4-4-12. One set of these is going to go to the home theatre pc and i'll be buying a 2nd 2gig matched pair so i have 4gb of all the same memory. Which should i get.

ClubIT Product - CORSAIR XMS2 2GB (2 x 1GB) DDR2-800 CL 5-5-5-12 Dual Channel Kit Retail TWIN2X2048-6400
Lastly. The motherboard. I still have my ds3r and i'm trying to decide if i should just keep it and use it for the home theatre pc or go through the hassle of selling it and buying a cheaper ds3l.
Also, before suggesting the magicstix, im entirely too lazy to be bothered with selling off one set of sticks and ordering 2 sets of ballistix and dealing with 2 different sets of rebates.
