Well I finally decided to make the plunge and buy a new computer. I used part of my tax refund and went to best buy. I know it's scary isn't it? Not exactly what I wanted, but it's pretty close and I thought wasn't too badly priced. Here is what I got.

Dell Studio XPS Desktop model SX8100-1986NBC
Intel core i7 processor 2.8GHz 8mb Cache
8GB DDR3 of Ram not exactly speed think its the 1066
1TB SATA 7200 Hard Drive
ATI Radeon HD5770 1GB Video Card
Built in 10/100/1000 Ethernet LAN
Built in Dell 1505 wireless LAN PCI-E card with 802.11n mini card (802.11 b/g/n)
Double layer DVD +/- RW/CD-RW
Windows 7 Home Premium 64Bit

Just thought I would share this with all the computer know it alls out there.

Once you get a feel for how it runs you should add this to our System Performance Thread

I'll have to do that Mike. Still exploring it so far, don't have FS on it yet.
