    Seems pretty good for the price. Not sure how they compare to the more modern Z series sets, but anything with the Z logo on it can't be bad.

    I think that last guy may have purchased the Z-5300's. ;) good for him and those do look like good speakers. :)

    overclock.net usually has good deals.

    I just bought a Xeon Quad Core 2.4Ghz and a Tuniq Tower with a FM121 fan for 195 shipped.

    The Xeon is kinda like a Q6600, but it can handle higher temps and overclocks better. Still, I think it's a good deal.

    That's exceptional, but doesn't the Tuniq come with its own fan? Or are you replacing it with something beefier?

    The FM121 is quite nice, as it can be sedate and provide a normal amount of airflow, or be ridiculously loud and basically move your PC around the desk... lol
    To not perpetually be the latter however, you have to stick a controller in a spare 3.5" bay, so hope you have one... lol.

    Heh, I had three of those fans once. When I ran them all on high, I could leave my room and shut the door, go downstairs, through into the kitchen and shut that door too, and still hear the fans. They're ridiculous.
