i got that quote somewhere from the dolphin pc buying guide. not that it matters, just wanted to hear your response. not sure if i want a dual or triple core, still thinking about it (risks if a core doesnt unlock).

if you dont like the e8xxx, do you like this, since its intel? got a better option?: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128359

also this case (free pwer supply, though 480w does suck): http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811146059

also while we're at it, Arnt these Exactly the SAME internals?: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Productcompare.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=2010340343%2050001028%204017&bop=And&ActiveSearchResult=True&CompareItemList=N82E16819103727%2CN82E16819103696


Also, kinda shocked desktop ram seems x2 as much as laptop mem, which sucks. know about laptop mem, but again this is my first desktop so fairly uncharted territory. i will be running a 64bit rig --> 4gb ok, do i need 6?, again all with dolphin in mind. with vista, on my laptop there was a huge difference between 2gb and 3/4gb....
