Sweet deal, shame the mobo and memory will cost twice that.

Yeah the i7 is going to be a niche high end product until the 3rd qtr of 09 imo.
Memory + MB costs are very high compared to Core 2 Duo setups and dont offer that great of a performance boost for the costs.

what's the next best thing? I've been out of the loop for awhile and thinking about building a new rig

920 is suppose to be on par with the top tier c2q on many application if not better. But let's not forget a top tier c2q cost probably around the same as an basic i7 setup.

I hate you people that live near a Frys.

Anyone want to trade my CompUSA for their Frys?
