that’s expensive…. the i5 is $368. I’m getting the i7 for the same price and that’s expensive here….. The NZD is screwing you….

Nice rig though.

Suggestions… not sure what the cost of the intel or crucial ssd’s are. Everywhere I read they’re just more reliable.

intel 520

looking at the Intel 520 you spec’d its about on par with the Vertex 3 which rated real well when it came out – it’s on my watch list just in case
