So freaking not worth it... horrible advice...
unless your parents are stupid like mine, in which case they never look at the 'big picture'. They bargain over tiny costs and savings, while big spendings in the thousands aren't much of an important topic for them. If they won't let me buy a new comp for gaming, I'm pretty sure I could trick them into letting me buy an agp 3850. Even though I know it would have been a complete rip-off in my previous situation 3 month ago (when I didn't have my new comp), it may have been my only choice for my p4 3.0 had my parents been restraining me from a new build altogether.
@jeep11, he could but he doesn't need to, nor would it be justified. He's already implied that his primary gaming build is a c2d... and my primary gaming comp is an athlon 7750 BE
