under 700? DAMN... I would think the 2 processors (not trying to be a smart ass) would be like 100 bucks each. Aren't the 7500 Radions like 200 bucks? I dunno, I'm not real into video.

kinda depends, most of the time it does nothing for you, yeah great you can view both processors cooking, but most apps don't support it.
