    what should i buy?

    Should i get myself a 9700, a 9600pro or a pioneer 106 DVDRW drive?

    Budget is £160 max

    The pioneer is slightly cheaper thn the other 2 but i can't make up my mind.

    Currently using a ti4800se and a CDRW/DVD combo drive.

    Suggestions welcome!

    Im not sure, ive never used the 106 for its graphics capabilities, jk!

    Do you play alot of games? Think your PC will run the new (hl2, doom3....) stuff?
    Do you need to backup a lot of data?

    well i have an SN45G with a XP2500 and lots of PC3200 ram.

    I want to treat myself to something and can't decide what, this will be my last treat for a while as I have to save for my wedding.
