Meh... That's ok. I actually was torn between going to Micro Center and Fry's ...... Guess I'll try both, sleep on it, THEN buy..... Oh well.

Why would I need a new GPU?? Newest PC games I have are Battlefield 2 which the X1950xt can max out easily, and Call of Duty 4 which I have had more than a year, and haven't installed it... I don't game on my PC much anymore, just my PS3's. I do, however do LOTS of video encoding.... Ripping my DVD library to make it all digital. And re-encoding vids for my iPhone and PSP...

Well, I got the Q9550 installed on Thursday night at about midnight, then the obligatory 2 hours of installing and updating XP.

Oh I see, the x1950xt is doing ya well..

Well then no need to upgrade then, I just thought you were doing the overhaul for it like you planned a bit back.. my bad

no prob.... I'd LOVE to upgrade to the 48xx series, but I just can't afford it yet...

That's a bummer, I got my HD 3850 now chugging in my rig for the 2nd weekend in a row
