82mm_4g63 is really pushing my interests in that i5 build for $600.

I think im going to bump up my budget to $600-$700 after reading this thread. I feel like my original budget wasnt going to give me the processing power i need for my applications.

Right now, It takes me 4 days to render a 30k poly object, to even add lighting and texture to that would take weeks. On a PC i used at school several years ago (probably coreduo) for learning some techniques I could render in 2 hours.

With the PC i could acquire now, id like my PC to render in real time.

So iv got my heart set on a;
2nd gen Intel i5
16gbddr3

I don't know yet about the HHD, GPU, or MOBO
