Borkstation x64 Upgrade for Xmass ? on My Wishlist santa , boss ... god

I don't want a quad core , now i have a dual core and is great but i want something more
so i guess a six core monster from amd would suffice and is quite cheap compared with intel i7 beasts

yes i compile c++/c/pascal a lot and transcode ogg and i need that kind of power
also i use linux-kvm(qemu)+virtualbox to run varios os-es : freebsd , windows , haikuos , ubuntu ,
also i needed for eclipse to develop android apps

For videocard my hope is a ati radeon 5750 that is quite good in opengl benchmarks and is cheap (or any ati 5000 series would do ) , I want to study and learn opengl and in the current version aka 4.x

and the amd/ati board is what i need also i want to play with opencl and firebird too and here is why opengl and onpecl won the api battle

The Most Wanted Processor On The Planet is : AMD Phenom II X3 720 or 710

If you look at the specs and price is quite normal
if you consider 3 core something usual :) but if you have an AMI bios
and I do have one I can Upgrade from Triple core to quad for Free
Here is the howto : is just an bios switch
ahh and the 6M of L3 cache is sweet

But there are chances that you will be left only with an simple Triplet if
the bios doesn't enable you the Quad inside
It is not guaranteed that it will work with all motherboards with AMI bios
