Well sir, here is the deal. If you geta flawless diamond you can overclock the cpu to a power of 5 but with this VS1 diamond you only get an overclock to the power of 3. It is of course your decision but if it was me I would go with the flawless...you see this is really just a one time investment. Now lets talk about the cut, these is where it gets tricky. You see sir, diamonds are about light refraction, you know the sparkle. So it also hold true to your cpu as well as on your finger. You see sir you could have a good cut, a very good cut, or perfect. I would go with the perfect cut as this will increase your thourghput and your FPOs. We are almost done here, size does matter don't believe them when they tell you it does not! Go with the biggest one your can swing, and if you can't swing it we have financing, so don't worry about that. Get the "OH LORD" effect at your local LAN party when they see this big ass bitch lit up by some blue neon lights.

You come back now when that one gets slow I will hook you up with a "Three Stone" SMP unit. VEDDY NICE!
