I agree with almost everyone here. Getting more for less is the whole point
But you have to wonder what the point of a killer CPU is without a good graphics card to team it up with. Having a 3200+ and more with a Ti4200 is useless. But the real good cards, new FX and 9700-9800 are twice as expensive as the CPUs...
If you save a 100 buks on the CPU but then spend 400 on the gfx card... well... you obviously have money to burn anyway That's why a 9500 non-Pro that works right at 9700 is the trick
But hey, nothing wrong with investing in you PC if you are happy, right.
