What I'm really surprised about is none of these reviews touched on temps......With an intel chip you need to spend a small fortune in upgrading cooling just to OC the darn thing, and this is with Core 2 quads........I7's will likely accelerate global warming ( ok maybe an exxageration but they run freaking hot ) Meanwhile toss the stock heatpipe stock cooler on the AMD chip run it at 3.7 with .10 over stock and call it a day.....this changes the price/performance ratio even more so.
