No reason to upgrade, running an E8650 no problem.

Yes it's dual core, but nothing out there properly uses anything more than that and I can run pretty much everything at max, I'm happy for a while longer.

I'm still happy with my quad core 4GB of ram.

Quad core compiling is pure sex.

No joke; two weeks worth of plasma "donation" around here would buy almost any one of the processors on that list.

(Is it really a donation when they pay you such insane amounts for it?)

it's a donation because it takes so long

I can't do it anymore due to flying. I'd have to wait 48 hours after the donation just to fly let alone donate again. The extra 120 bucks a week was nice though, but I don't really miss it that much >_>



Back on topic, I might pick up one of those Q6600's

nice revive.



drive through the ghetto, in larger cities it's usually between the crack dealer and liquor store

if the crack dealer gives you any jibba jabba then just tell em you'll pay em when u get out and proceed to ask him directions

otherwise google is your friend
