Nvidia nForce 6xx series. The 680 is a sweet board if you can afford it.

Why don't you just tell us it's an ibuypower (or Cyberpower) system?

No DVD burner?

Why not go with the 320GB SATA w/16MB cache?

Who ever said change from an AMD to intel needs to be punched in the mouth, AMD out performs all Intel processors with the exception of the new quad core. But, AMD is cooking up somthing. Intels early release will be there demise. HAHAHA INTEL SUX!!!
