| With surround I will fourth the Sandybridge route. They are pretty sweet. AMD will do it, but the potential of the I series is alot higher. |

is it just during a video?
if its during gameplay let me know, video's in older games were just video files, and sometimes trying to capture them that way would give you an error. |

| my opinion. never buy a mac for gaming, and two look at what you vs what you can get. For $2000 I can build a tower that meet all your needs and get you a new screen as well. seriously though...what are you going to do that the $300 SB Quad i7 won't handle? His mac is already out of date. Save yours... |

| I normally bought CPU's as OEM's because of this. However the i5 cooler for work did well, but again...not OCing, not gaming, just sometimes number crunching for 30 seconds. |

Good fix.
Story for you to be aware. I had a wonderful (at the time) abit-NF7-S board...Ram was bad...so I called Corsair and got a new one...it still crashed...yes...the freaking memory slot was bad. I never fixed it because I didn't want to be computerless. |

I'd recommend the smaller one depending on how close your sitting 2210 has the same res and a tighter pitch.
OR
Go U2410 and get the better panel...(well worth it IMHO)
I'm a single screen user, and thats the route I would go. |

| I have a 2x22 ST2210's by dell at work, nice screens....but for home I wouldn't recommend them, IPS panels are a lot nicer to the eyes. I'd go for the dell, otherwise you might get buyers remorse. |

| watercooling is based one the concept of either quiet with little performance over fans, or high performance with noise. Like a car they require air to pass through the rad. |
