That is more than enough for me. I am not into gaming but edit movies, pictures, create loads of documents and build webpages...I actually only have a dual core but it goes like a rocket for me...And yes it intel... I have had AMD and they had a bad rep but they have really picked up their game...Intel should be worried about the competition..

Way to much for me to handle, plus I'm more of a console gamer.

[Merlin33069]

for most everyday things this is overkill.... granted it gets them done when you tell it to

but i do quite a bit of gaming, program compiling for my server and some other resource intensive apps...

[Solracnas]

I'm sure you have more then enough to handle whatever you throw at it, really impressive system.

Computers are like highways, most of the time they only need one lane, and all those resources are wasted except for the couple hours of the day that the traffic is heavy. i personally am glad the govt. overkills on the roads though, it makes things a lot easier when those peak traffic times come.

My own computer is way overkill, pretty silly really, but I'd rather buy bigger monitors than a plasma screen for the living room because I rarely watch TV.

I dont need an i7, my current quadcore works very well, but i still plan on getting an i7!  Computers are a passion, logic does not apply. You'll be able to prise my mouse from my cold, stiffened fingers when I die. Some like to have fast cars or fast women, i like fast computers. Mind you, I think I could enjoy all 3...

[Solracnas]

Very well put, but I think it's amazing how advanced technology is getting.
I recently saw something on TV about actual holograms up and running, so who knows what will be around the corner. So yes we all agree overly fast computers are tops., but fast women...that's a whole other story.

[Merlin33069]

Lol, its addicting really, im always looking to add things to my pc, as im sure some others are as well...

I would like to have a phenom II, a new mobo, 16 gigs of ram, a couple of NVidia cards, whatever is tops at the time....

But alas, thats a dream machine... Dang

[Mitz]

Maybe we should start a group called "computers anonymous"

[Solracnas]

Yes, If you show up you get a free graphics card and pamphlet.

[woodyblade]

I showed up... I'll take that Graphics Card then Solracnas (You can keep the pamphlet )
