WHERE MY NERDS AT. (another computer thread)

Yeah, it’s out of stock (I know they’ll get more - just sayin). I was building my list with only in stock items to get a dollar amount. The list wouldn’t computer a final price with any out of stock items. I guess I should have wrote this is “how powerful” my next computer will be. I didn’t mean that those are the parts I want, set in stone. I’m sure by mid-summer next year, a lot of those parts will have better versions, etc.

:lol

But I was referring to the high end Sandy. That’s what I want to buy if I go Sandy. And that one, I believe, is still like $1,000.

you can get a 3930k for $600, but are you really needing the 2 extra cores? the 3930k is only faster than the 2600k on high multithreaded applications. for 99% of even HIGH END users the 2600k is the best processor out there. Only select applications is it justifiable to get the higher end ones. The 3930 is on amazon in stock. The 3930 is far better than the gulftown, but the gulftown is barely better then the 2600k for half the price. There is no place for a 980 in any computer at that price point IMO. i have no idea why you would buy it.
