With triple channel memory, the x58 platform has pretty good bandwidth without overclocking the rest of the CPU. I believe a good example of a non-bandwidth limited program is Folding@home or WCG (world computing grid). The don't move really large blocks of data but do a lot of fp (floating point) type of calculations. I'm sure someone here will correct me if I'm wrong.
To aid the discussion, could you explain more what you plan to do with your computer (the types of applications you plan to run).
i play wow couple hours a night. F@h the rest and while i play.
and ill proabbly play the new starwars mmo when it comes out.
i bought this cpu to F@h with.
When are these released?

you received a 990x or a 995x i am waiting for the 995x
soon 980x will be buyable soon. maybe? 970's are what 550? make a couple hundred in a month and a 980x will soon be with you. or Xeon's FTW
Do you mean the 980X price will drop? I don't think so. Maybe you can get some OEM or second hand from eBay a little cheaper though (like 450-600 €).
