thought i might be outta touch
to the average user tho would they actually notice a difference if all they want to do is a bit of gaming
am more than happy with my OLD amd x3 720BE with a newly installed nvidia 670 gfx card, plays all my games at full HD res no problems
have you looked at the amd range of CPU's, should be cheaper than intel for similar performance (well it was the last time i build a pc)
also AMD should be launching the new CPU's soon so the older ones might come down in price,worth a thought

^^ a few bench marks for cpu/gfx card etc
glad it was a cheap and easy fix
did something similar on my dads '04 corsa, the seal had gone around the 'blackbox' near the battery ( 1 missing screw, common fault from a quick google search) and was letting water into the passenger footwell, 1hr and cut fingers later (not much room to work) it was sorted with the aid of some clear silicon and 1 replacement screw
this as popped up on a few sites i read, dunno if it's any good or not, same goes for the site

**edit** my bad it doesn't have gps
saw the start of this film, they said the car (370z),didn't mention the make or model tho, can do 0-60 in 3.5 seconds top speed of 195mph cost $80,000 and it was STOCK !!!!
must have been a awesome film with facts like that
had a similar experience the other week, was at a large traffic light junction when a guy shouted from about 3 lanes to my left- "what make is it ?" by the look on his face and his passengers they also couldn't believe it was a nissan.
the 350z as been out nearly 10 years and still not that well known
( i have Z badges but have left the 350z on the back)
