Well folks, it's that time of year again when we seriously start thinking what we want for Christmas. So, I'll get it started. http://www.guru3d.com/news-story/intel-core-i7-6950x-broadwell-e-has-10-cores-and-20-threads.html I'll even settle for the 6800K.

Some EVGA GTX 980 cards(not the Ti version, as that is more than I feel like spending on a card), reference type that have one fan at the rear, why? EVGA makes or made(not sure which) a Hybrid cooler that water cools the gpu and the conversion costs less than a C note(>$100) with shipping.

My Ultimate Christmas wish is to have a 1973 Mercury Cougar XR-7, hardtop, full Vinyl top, with VIN Starting as: 3F93H5(00000) [Replace the zeroes with the build series number; ie 14470 - indicating the 14,470th car off the line.]

MUST have Original 351 Cleveland, 2bbl or 4bbl, Original FMX Automatic Transmission, and factory/dealer A/C, and the bullet style racing mirrors on the doors. Any other factory/dealer options are gravy.

(Engine and trans can be Original Rebuilt.)

Preferred color scheme: Wimbledon White with Ginger Interior and Ginger roof.

[Seen going for anywhere between $15,000 and $25,000.]

Car to suddenly appear in the driveway on Christmas morning would be the MOST AWESOME sight, ANYWHERE.

Some day, everyone... Some day... (sigh)

Hmm, I had ten-core Xeons over a year ago.
