Re: *** i7 920 DO vs. i7 920 CO ***

I just plain LOVE my i7 920 and 12 gigs of RAM....

I have soooooooo many services and apps and STUFF running in the background it just SCARES ME.....

But this i7 rig never misses a beat----even with all that junk running----it's just fast as heck!!!!

AND does great video encoding at the same time....and play games.....

FINALLY----a machine that just does EVERYTHING----no fuss----no muss.....

Hope to join you guys someday. Having a fan issue right now. I really have to reinstall Windows since I have a new mobo which I haven't done yet. Was going to wait for Windows 7 to reinstall.

So Skully is the D0 a winner?
