There are some major advantages to an i7920 but I am sure you will be happy
so I will refrain from anymore commentary. Your bonuses will be cheaper RAM
and motherboard, less power consumption and a little less heat. I will stop
typing now.

Sorry to hear that. I built my main computer the same time you did...
in fact, I mostly copied your list of components. This has been the
most solid, reliable machine I've ever had, and it's still perking
merrily along. I usually keep my computers until they start to balk at
the tasks I have for them, and so far, this one hasn't complained about
anything.

I totally get it. Best bang for the buck. Reaper will be smoking for
you. I am working in Reaper while I am typing this. I am also giggling all
the time now and you were right once again my friend. Reaper does indeed
rock! I will say it again, I am in DAW heaven.
