    I decided I wanted to upgrade my 7805! No it isn't economical but I enjoy it so to hell with reason! Anyway here is the list:

    X9100 CPU for $235.00 on ebay
    1920x1200 screen for 129.00 on ebay
    2x 500GB 7200RPM WD Blacks for $140.00 on newegg
    8GB Gskill RAM for 99.00 on newegg
    180W Liteon A/C adapter

    I have a T9600 already in my laptop that I am going to sell so lemme know if your interested. As well as every other part I am going to be replacing. Anyway I will post some benchmarks once all the upgrades are done in about a week. Wish me luck!

    I went for a SSD on the primary, I already had the 1920x1200 and that is why this system got all the upgrades rather than just a new system, but all sounds good.............
