i think i might move to amd..

Im not buying outrageously prices ddr3 just to be able to run the fsb for high clocks. 1333 fsb can burn for all I care. People sit here and dog AMD all day, but to me they are the better company for the consumer. Better prices, good performance, and PLATFORM LONGETIVITY!

No penryn dual core is worth me trading up my 3.5ghz e6300 running under 1.35V

The real CPU battle will be Phenom and Nehalem architectures IMO.
