The new Core 2 Duo from Intel is coming up really well on benchmarks. I just got the parts for my first one a few days ago and haven't had a chance to assemble it yet.

They also aren't too expensive for the mid-range ones, and motherboards seem to have pretty high availability as well.

Unless you're really stuck on buying stuff locally, you can usually do a lot better than Fry's pricewise too. Hit Newegg.com or one of the other big online shops.

If/when you're ready to pick stuff up, drop me a PM, I go through lots of parts and avoid some of the price flucations and may be able to save you a couple of bucks on memory. (I bought a lot before the recent jump)
