I've just spent a crapload of money to delve into the world of the i7, along with refreshing my old system...and I find myself unhappy.
Sure, the i7 is a really fast system, and my sli cards chew through games like never before...but I find myself longing for my old IP-35E that cost $50, and my e6750 that I got for $75, and the GS Kill 8GB kit for only $49.
That system did everything I needed, and did it well. Now I have all this water cooling, sli enabled, triple channel ram, passive this and active that, RAID0 VR's, Terabytes of storage, custom case...the list goes on and on....
But I still don't think it is right...my little $200 dually was right!
