Do you have a special microcenter deal on the i7 930 or did you not know that the 950 is about the same price online?

I just updated everything. What you quoted was error on my part. I live by a microcenter. So thats why i limited myself to only those cpu's because i can get them cheap where i live. I however posted the new egg links for reference

In which case I would go with the i7 950 as that is what I am getting


I am not a huge fan of EVGA motherboards though.
