hey this is my first or second post on these forums. After reading for a year I finally have a reason to post. I have almost made enough $$$ for this beast computer I am about to order, and following this week's paycheck I will be placing my order from Newegg.
I would appreciate it if you could post your opinions on these parts and let me know if there is anything available for the same or less price that would serve me better. I am hoping to be able to run ALL current games at maximum settings on a 20 inch monitor, including Crysis, so also let me know how you think it will perform.
Here it goes:
Q6600 Core 2 Quad 2.4GHz: $240
