hi, im about to buy the sn25p (spec ferver doesn this page) but would it be worth waiting for the snn27p2? it looks soooo nice =] and AM2 and DDR2.

i dont realy want to buy an out of date pc (even though i know things change so fast it will always be out of date) so, should i wait for the sn27p2?

another question is will the GeForce 7950 GX2 cards fit in the SN25 and also the SN27?

chris

EDIT:

has anyone got an idea on the price of the sn27? also any idea on when it will be released?

I have just bought the SN25P to replace my Coolermaster Wavemaster setup. The little one is starting to crawl around so I want to get all the electronics off the floor and stuff. Also, a bit of piece and quite would be nice, all the humming from the Wavemaster is driving me up the wall.

Just one question. Will a X1800XT fit in it? Going to remove the cooler and install a VF900.

I bought one of the 1800XT's from Ocuk and that fits fine but you do have to remove the shroud that sits over the cpu fan. No sure on the VF900 though.

I'm waiting for the sn27p2 (am2) also, waiting on the time scale on when it's going to be released before committing to buy a tower case etc.

Anyone got idea's as to the pricing for this as yet, as i really need to weigh up the options for and against a shuttle.

Edit: Just found a site, saying that the retail price will be approx £196.00

Guess i'm making a trip across the pond to buy mine, as i'm sure it'll be more expensive here in the UK.
