As of right now, the use of DDR2 and close performance in games says that an AM3 Phenom II and an AM2+ board may be a (much) better option then an i7. I guess I'll see though--Intel needs to get P55 out to compete, and hopefully memory prices will be driven down as DDR3 heats up.
You talk as if current C2Qs/S775 don't even exist...

News flash, the performance levels of PII is right in line with C2Qs and the pricing reflects that. As many people will tell you, PII is more about competing against C2Q than Ci7.
