I can't tell you how many times I've upgraded board, card and CPU, and RAM, in the reign of 775 Socket. As always, incremental changes and optimizations are bound to come as the architecture matures. It is my opinion that now is the time to hop on that high end or performance 775 train and ride it out for about a year or year and a half till the price comes down, the technology matures, and the software catches up to it.
new technoligy isent for people that want the best system for the buck!!!!!!

I'm really sick of folks talking about $1000 CPU's when 2.66GHz might cost about $300 or so. Or less than Conroe E6600 or Athlon X2 3800+. Get real folks what you guys want?Now yield must be danged good if 2.66GHz is the slowest they're going to ship Or has some one mentioned this already?
why are you sick of that Donnie ?
Who cares if the cpu that is listed at 1000 $ only runs 30% faster than the cpu listed at 500 $

THIS IS XTREMESYSTEMS. NOT BUGET SYSTEMS, Not best bang for buck...

I dont understand why everybody gets so agitated.
RELAX, Dont buy if you dont like the price ratio.
BE HAPPY somthing new is comming out so you can save even more on the Q9450. JESUS RELAX EVERYBODY
