    Sell everything I own and move to the mountains?

    Purchased the drive with a raincheck for $69.99 + tax. Sent in for the $50 rebate that printed from the register, the $60 raincheck rebate, and the $30 manufacturer's rebate. As of This morning, all three have been approved. So I make $65.11 after tax and stamps.

    XP1700 or Barton 2500?

    Okay, so if I get the Barton, since it's retail, should I bother picking up the Thermalright SK7 and a fan or just stick with the stock HSF?
