| Holiday Buyers Guide, Part I: CPUs, GPUs, Mobos, and RAM Inevitably, around this time of year people repeat two questions like a daily mantra. What do you want for Christmas? What should I ask "Santa" to bring me? (Feel free to insert your own appropriately politically correct holiday references.) We won't try to say that it's better to give than to receive, but assuming the giving and/or receiving involves a computer geek, we can at least try to provide some good advice on what sort of packages might bring the most joy to this holiday season. http://www.anandtech.com/guides/showdoc.aspx?i=3157
