If you had $2500

I'd be able to pay for next year's tuition!!!!

For a computer, I probably wouldn't be able to spend it all. 24" monitor, Phenom II X4 940, a good cooler, 8Gb of DDR 1066 and a pair of HD 4870's. I don't think that comes to $2500.
 
by a phenom II 720 with a board that will unlock the 4th core

but im a cheap-ass

$2500 would buy a killer i7 build
 


i meant USD $2500 just to clear things up
