uhhhh in 2.5 months loads of crap can happen, 32 nm, 6 core, fermi, prices going down, combos going away, parts being dicontinued...the lexa blackline is great, so keep that. i cant quite help as much unless ur buying in the next week or so.

 

[bhagat666]

so should i post it 2-3 weeks before i buy it

 

[ares1214]

yep, maybe even a week or so.

Yes, any other time of the year, I'd say "good idea...plan early".

But Intel prices drop at end of february, new MoBos based upon Intel's new CPU's start hitting streets in Feb - March and new nVidi GFX cards dropping in about 5 weeks. So yes....hold onto your wallet and stay tuned to THG and keep yaself appraised as to what's happening.

Also, check out this in the meantime.

+1 exactly, right now is when new things in mass quantity are coming out, and prices will drop a lot. who knows about fermi, and ssd prices.
