Looking at the specs of the extremes, I would have to agree. I don't see much gain. I want an HD DVD/Blu Ray drive, because it is a personal preference of mine & I have the money to get one. I already have a DVD drive. Can you use different speed RAM in different slots? For example, if you have a MB w/ 800 standard; can you put 1066 in it? I am not an expert on Graphics Cards, so, I can only go on what you guys tell me. I have a 6600, so I'm out of the loop. I also don't know that much about power supplies. & I wanted the Cosmos 1000 for quietness. To be continued...
