HD3850/3870 specs

It'll probably be around the same price as the GT so I'd say wait a few weeks. As for the CPU I'll be buying a Q6600 but you might as well buy a E6600 or something similar and wait for multi core technology to advance a bit, thats only if you don't mind upgrading that is. If your going with Vista you might as well get 4 gb ram, it isn't that much more expensive and your system will appreciate it.
