I realized I'd have to pick up a copy of Windows too, and it doesn't seem like you can get those anywhere for under $80. If I were to swap out the CPU for one of the cheaper AMD ones would that cause any issues? If so, is there anywhere else I could cut costs? Maybe I should just save up a little more instead...
Swapping your CPU out for AMD will require a different motherboard.
AMD will also perform slightly not as well as Intel. If you don't really care then go for it. [MENTION=7881]LadyJenJen[/MENTION]; uses my old AMD server as her desktop and it works just fine.

Me personally, nothing since I don't buy EVGA. I've heard horror stories from my friends/coworkers about how they try to oven their graphics cards only to find out that the solder that EVGA uses is not oven-able.
