    where they aren't shockingly expensive? I'm thinking about upgrading the G51 (best buy), am looking at the T9600 which was recommended. But it's $340 at newegg!! That is outrageous... Is there a better solution in terms of CPU/vendor that gets me more bang for the buck than that?

    I used the Jedi mind trick on Zero989. The place isn't that great.
