if u overclock your processor, it might make install times faster (by what a few minutes? my 1.6ghz p4 finishes installing office XP in 3 minutes) but it would also greatly reduce the processor's life. I really think that i can spare a few minutes of my life in order to conserve a few hundred dollars

I would rather processor than ram (but at least still have a reasonable ammount of ram, like minimum 256 or 512 ddr) i'd also like a good video card.
But if you read the systam specs everything on this system is basically top of the line, not just a massively overclocked processor.
