We have sacrificed a great many things to get the prices we have. Little things like high paying jobs with a decent health care and paid vacations. Nothing major.

LOL were in the same boat here. The place i live in is the 3rd largest steel mill in N.America and its on its last legs. At least you guys pay for your health care so you can crab about it. here it might be free but it royally sucks.

take it from me, you dont want a phenom II. I would get a high end intel quad core+mobo instead. I own a quad and I am not impressed with it one bit. Its overclocking abilities have been overhyped by AMD. Now i know to stick with intel.

I was thinking her in a swimsuit by the full purchase then pics of the build pics of end product and her. I've been spending a lot of time lately researching and what not since the last PC I bought was in the summer of 04 and it was from dell. Funny story I heard from a friend across the hall in my dorm that building a PC was cheaper so I checked it out. Then while I was reading I stumbled on this site. OCN taught me how to choose parts and what was what inside a rig. 5 days ago I couldn't tell the difference between an AMD quad core and an Intel quad core. My knowledge was there are 4 cores not one NOICE. Soooo I have been trolling these forums for several days just soaking it all in.
