Because they're the foundation of a computer - what all other apps run from, it needs to work, it needs to update, it needs to be stable. Most people want it to be legit.

OS's are the only software I do buy.


Well...not now I have MSND

Ew, red keypad. How ugly.

Considering the Bold 9700. So sexy.

Can anyone tell me whats the best (in terms of all-around performance/price) Intel Dual or Quad core and also the best new Nvidia card, (again in terms of all-around performance/price) currently avaliable? Looking to upgrade after christmas, perhaps get one of them for christmas. I want to stick with Intel and Nvidia though rather than AMD.

Er..... i5?
There ain't much point in going for the Dual or Quad when the i5 is out.

Best nVidia card? Why not ATi? THey have better cards out now than nVidia do.

I'd rather just stick with nVidia. Also didn't know about the i5.

i'm an nVidia guy but i gotta say the 5870 looks impressive.
i bought the 9700 pro when it came out, went back to nVidia. i was impressed with that particular card.
when i upgrade, i'll go with the best bang for the buck @ the time - right now it's ATI and Eyefinity . . .

And your reasons for sticking to Nvidia? I love it when people say this but have absolutely no reason to do so, and don't say it's a matter of preference, because when it comes to computer parts, it's a matter of performance, not what looks best or what sounds cool.

What does it matter? The card I currently have is an Nvidia and its worked fine for close to four years. I don't care about ATi, I asked is what was the best and fair priced Intel processor and Nvidia card. Don't like it? Then tough.

What does it matter? It's just being ignorant and throwing away stupid money for worse performance. I currently have an Nvidia card, but if I had to choose a new one I would go for ATi because they ARE the best in the market.

It's like going to buy Bose speakers because you've had them before. They're both overpriced and shit in comparison to their competition. You want someone to help with getting you the best parts for your computer? Then you gotta be open minded to all the suggestions.

That being said, best bang for buck Nvidia cards are the 260GTX and the 280GTX.

B-but the PS3 has no games...
The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

once upon a midnight dreary, while i pron surfed, weak and weary, over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot  xxx galore'. While i clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", i muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, 404.
