Just buy the cheaper 955 and spend the money you save on a better cooler. It appears I got a pretty decent (understatement) 955 from TigerDirect for $119 on sale the other day. It's probably a down binned 970 but I'm not complaining! http://i634.photobucket.com/albums/uu62/Margay20/4gigger.jpg stuff...

It's this one........ http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103846 I bought it in OCT 2010 and have been running it at just a tick over stock voltage at 3.7 GHz.

Only thing I did was update my firmware from CL0G to the latest version, CL0K. Did a 24.6GB folder of mp3's from ...

I like what you have listed. I'm using a MicroATX ( in a full tower case with 4 hard drives, 3 opticals, PCIE 1x RAID card, Vidcard, floppy etc etc. You'll be fine as long as you're not looking to do SLI or anything crazy like that. The good MicroATX boards used to be about $85 but they all went up ...

ouch. glad I'm still a talker and texter.

Turns out I won't even need an adapter if I decide to use them with the TV. They'll plug right in. Nice :-)

got 'em today. giving them the PC shakedown first. They rock pretty nice !
