what for? to go from 60fps to 70fps? and for that you need a new board and new cpu and hew heatsink and possibly new memory... nah, not worth it...
Welcome to yesterday to put it in your own words. There's never much of a point to update from one generation to another if you want cost-effective performance. It's called "iteration" and "evolution" for a reason. I don't think even the (r)evolutionary conroe release was any different, was there really a sudden need to upgrade from a solid K8 platform? Hardly.
