Suppose your computer was fried, and you have to replace it now! (today), and an Uncle had just given you $800, to which you will add your own funds of course according to your own finances and priorities.
Of course....you could choose to spend the $800, and more, or less, according to your own personal priorities. We know price cuts are coming, but suppose you had to have a computer now, and can't borrow one, and no laptop, etc.
Thought I'd liven up the forum a little. Hope I've included enough good candidates -- the poll only allows this many. (From NewEgg in stock, except the QX6800)
Feel free to vote for a nearby candidate to your choice missing from the limited list here, and post your own write-in note.
Glad to hear your own version of why a certain chip is the best. Short and Sweet. Everyone has a right to their own preferences!
Mine:
----------------------------------------------
X2 4600 65W, cause the price and performance are sweet, and I can plop in a pleasant new cpu in that board next year. And I want a more awesome monitor! (and new graphics).
