    Is there a M860TU barebones available anywhere?

    I can't seem to find one.

    I would also recommend RJtech.

    Thanks for the link!

    Though RJtech lists the 9800 GT and 9800 GTS, I thought only one card was available on the M860TU?

    Multicom.no offers with 8800M GTX too. They are norwegian though.

    there are a number of vendors that are offering two options now.

    the 9800M GTS makes the system a bit more bang for the buck. ;)

    RKComputer looks to be a little bit better of a deal... since the CPU is the only part I don't want to mess with and doesn't seem cheaper to buy separately that I've found (if you add in the cost of arctic silver).

    Or maybe I'm better off doing it myself if I can do a better job with the silver?
    I have no problem placing RAM/HDD/etc... but the application of goop does worry me a bit.
