Uhhh dude thats $1000 for the CPU alone $700 more than the Q9550 an not worth it at all. The 9550 is also 1333 FSB

Thats the new i7 platform, you need a new Mobo and DDR3 ram for it. the cheapest setup fot this CPU I could find is around $900 us. but it isn't worth it yet really.

don't go i7 yet, and about the CPU it was just to compare since he wanted an extreme chip, i guessed i would show him the possibilities .
ps: IMO i7 was mainly meant for advanced servers, not for common users. the pros are that it can hyper thread though, but still not worth it.

i don't know , after all i think there must be better species i can get , i think the money was the problem , so here is my whole budget for the following parts , it's 1350 euro :
CPU , HDD , ddram , mother board , and vga card .
i'm satisfied with cpu and mother board , but i think i can get a better VGA card , so pls get me the last parts ( ddram, vga card and hdd 1 TB ) with my budget , this is the source i buy my pc from here .
these are good for me :
Intel Processeur core 2 quad Q9550
Asus Rampage Formula
but there is no 260 gtx vga card in that site , so i will jumb for another one and i hope i can get a better one with this new budget .
i have only a week to make my last choice , and it must be good cause i'm not thinking about buying another in the near future .
i hope one of these card will be good and fit my budget :
1 , 2 , 3

I know my opinion on here don't count worth swat but I have a site that I use as a rule for helping people buy or build systems .
Is it a gamer or just a all around system for e-mail , browsing and schoul projets etc. ?
A link is here for an idea of a config that may work . The p4 or Amd Power system gives you a goal for say under $ 600 cdn .

Sorry I got confused it was a higher spec you wanted but still suggest their config's .
