Unless cleaning out your apartment consists of throwing TV's, and other objects out your window onto people on sidewalks below, Hanoi Rocks doesn't seem like fitting music for cleaning. Vapor Trail - RUSH

What if they were the best looking ball washers in Atlantic City? Would that be applicable at all?

Featuring the best looking ball washers this side of Vegas.

Admittedly, that's an advertising hole in one.

May the best Car (Boat) Chop win.

If I said it was the best truck ever, as I was going to say originally, there'd be rage from the 2500/3500 camps.

No don't! I wanna win by default!! The two sweetest words in the English language! DE FAULT DE FAULT!!

Sweet buy! Arguably the best light truck on the market.

Nice catch there, Mr. Bacon!

VonVee, you guys really need some of that government owned public insurance we got next door.

It's just a benchmark program, and some of the results are a bit strange. Also, programs like Passmark are 'synthetic' and don't often reflect real world performance. If you're interested in a more complete analysis, then Toms Hardware's review of the i5-750 has a couple pages devoted to productivity applications, media, and synthetics. Toms Hardware Hardware Canucks' review that has the i5 750 is also fantastic. http://www.hardwarecanucks.com/forum/hardware-canucks-reviews/22151-intel-lynnfield-core-i5-750-core-i7-870-processor-review.html I should mention that you have to step back from the benchmark bars, and look at the numbers. While in many cases, AMD's CPU's may trail, the difference is often down to seconds, or few frames per second. In turn, AMD's options are cheaper than Intel's, so you have to weigh between dollars saved vs seconds saved/smoother gaming.

That Gateway is a good machine. However, the power supply is limited, so if you decide you want to upgrade your graphics later on, you'll be in a similar boat as you are now. This pre-built machine may be worth a look. The graphics card is much more powerful than the 5750, and the liquid cooling is interesting. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883229169&cm_re=cyberpower_pc-_-83-229-169-_-Product Now, while I know I'll sound like a broken record here, I'd suggest investigating the 'do-it-yourself' option. It's not terribly complicated, and seeing as you're tinkering with a Vee Dub, assembling a PC, and getting it up and running will be a piece of cake in comparison. For the same price as that Gateway, you can actually get a considerably more powerful computer. Or, you can get similar specifications for cheaper. For example, I quickly pieced together on newegg.com, an i5-750 system with a 5770 and a 1TB Hard Drive for $914.92; that doesn't include the 90 bucks in rebates. You could save even more money if you go with an AMD platform, which will get you a CPU faster than the Intel i5-750 for cheaper. The benefits of building your own are that you can cherry pick components that are tailored to your use, and you get top shelf components. If problems with components arise, then you are covered by warranties, and you can get support from the manufacturers. A few of us have built systems like siegen, Dodgefan, PurdueGuy, JamesBond and myself, so you'll have plenty of 'local' help if you're willing to build your own.

What machines did you have in mind? Something with an i5-750 will be very, very powerful.

Normally, nVidia made you use their platforms, which were generally craptacular, or you had to buy an Intel chipset that was licensed by nVidia (extra charge) in order to run their multi graphics card solution SLI. Thanks to this hack, you can actually run SLI on an Intel P45/X48, or even AMD chipsets!
