    LED backlighting is nice, but it's not extremely important.

    To answer peoples' questions, yes, the extra money _is_ worth it. This laptop is going to be my main machine for a while, and I can get the ed. discount. Yes, I got lucky - you can return it. Their online RMA form even has an option for "buying newer product". :)

    I bought a 17" MacBook Pro, refurbished, 3 days before the new ones came with a better processor and video card :( :( :mad:

    What to do with 12 Pentium 3's

    Put half of em in for folding :D I'd doubt you really need a video card - integrated graphics should work fine like other people have said. But if you really need one, I'd recommend a GeForce MX4000 (available at NewEgg for $25.99)

    Good X2 3600 build?

    How long does step up stay in effect after the purchase of the card?

    Good X2 3600 build?

    Thanks for the recommendation. I'll shop around a bit and I can return the 7600GT I find a better deal. I'll just use an old 'emergency' 6200TC I have lying around to boot up the new build.

    Good X2 3600 build?

    Well, the shipment should be on its way soon. It also looks like I should be very happy with my combo. Look at some results from Xtremesystems

    Good X2 3600 build?

    Also, don't forget their upgrade policy.

    Good X2 3600 build?

    Never heard of the reboot/freeze problem myself. I've used eVGA cards in previous builds, and they're still working like they're brand new. I also did a little research on the Biostar... seems like a good board. Someone got 3GHz on air on this exact board.

    Good X2 3600 build?

    Ok, thanks for all the suggestions! Here's the (probably) final build: SAMSUNG 18X DVD±R DVD Burner 41.99 COOLER MASTER Centurion 5 CAC-T05-UW 49.99 Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 ST3320620AS 320GB 89.99 EVGA 256-P2-N615-TX GeForce 7600GT 256MB 109.99 CORSAIR XMS2 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2...

    Could you recommend a good PSU and cheap mobo?

    Good X2 3600 build?

    I need a new rig, but I'm a bit tight on money now. I'd just like to get comments on this newegg build. SAMSUNG 18X DVD±R DVD Burner 41.99 $COOLER MASTER Centurion 5 CAC-T05-UW 49.99 Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 ST3320620AS 320GB 89.99 EVGA 256-P2-N615-TX GeForce 7600GT 256MB 109.99 CORSAIR...

    Budget OC system - 3600 or e4300

    Yikes! Did type $900? :eek: I meant 800 - should fix that. Yes, it is from the ground up (but I already have a monitor).

    Budget OC system - 3600 or e4300

    My budget is around $00 (so it's not really that budget) I'm looking for a good, solid, OC-able build with a good upgrade path (like I said in the original post). I'm mostly going to be using it for a light gaming machine (WoW, some older games, maybe some fancier DX10 stuff when I have enough...

    Budget OC system - 3600 or e4300

    Would you say an E4300 or a Brisbane x2 3600 is the best for a budget OC system? I'm also looking for a solid upgrade path in the future when I can get a bit more money.
