You have the choice of two computer systems, well, at least the barebones of each....

System #1:

Asus Maximus Formula mb
Q9550 cpu (cpu can hit 4GHz on 1.3V---can hit 3.8GHz with 1.18V)
4GB (2x2GB) Mushkin Redline DDR2-1000 (PC2 8000) RAM



System #2:

MSI X58M mATX mb
Core i7 920 cpu (SLBEJ stepping--D0--and 3845B batch, unk. OC'ing ability)
6GB (3x2GB) Patriot Viper DDR3-1333 (PC3-10666) RAM (7-7-7-20 timings)


Parts that'll be used on either system.......

ATI 4870 1GB video card
1TB WD Black hd
1TB WD Green HD
Obligatory optical drives (2 DVD+/-RW drives)


So, which would you keep and which barebones would you sell?

You really make it difficult, since you list absolutely no guidance as to how the PC will be used.
Considering the information vacuum...

Keep #1
Sell #2
