Screw this new-fangled 64 bit and dual-core crap. I likes my computers like I likes my coffee: slow and outdated.

Good pick for a pre-existing 939 solution. I may be going with a completely new build in a couple of weeks, but I'm going Conroe.

I have an Opteron 165 CCB1E @ 2.85GHz.

Do I win?

Give me 2gBs+ of RAM, higher processing speed, and more storage any day over that. I don't do games ;)

Yes, you win the prize for foolish spending on a video card :p

It cost me $285 to Step Up from a 7800GT, so I think that's worth it.

But I'm not keeping it, it's on eBay. I got myself a 7900GT, it's like getting paid to upgrade!

Next up: Sell the Opteron to a sucker and pay off my Conroe debts.

Only if you can give a better reason other than the peen-waving contest as to why you'd waste so much money on that card. What are they running, like $700 right now?

~$600
