It took forever to get my rebates in, but by then it’s bought and paid for so that’s almost like extra money.

As far as the processors go, I haven’t looked much into the Core2 stuff and I’m using the Athlon64 because it came bunched with the deal I got, but I wanna look into upgrading to the FX-55 Processor in the near future as it looks like prices have dropped a bit.
