wow casecutter, from reading the entire thread, pretty impressive analysis you did there.

i have similar goals to dcbryan... so if i may request a review of a good setup? however, there's a pretty killer computer store by my place that seems to have comparable if not lower pricing than newegg (and then i can easily return defected/unwanted stuff). btw they have the Q6600 for $199.

if someone could take a glance at the following specials and align them with similar specs/brands/pricing as the ones selected for dcbryan to see if it's worth just buying from there, it would be much appreciated ;p

http://microcenter.com/specials/catalogs/

mix and match (like buy case, cpu from microcenter and the rest from newegg)? otherwise, one can never fail with new egg ;x

HARD DRIVE

what about hard drive options? for best performance, would it be wise to select 2 harddrives? one good primary one (e.g. sufficient sized WD sata 10,000RPM with a large sized 7,200rpm? to save all the junk, old work, music, etc. on)

again, THX for any help!
