Couldn't agree more. It would cost me well over $1000 to go i7 and other than media encoding, I wouldn't gain much. The fact that there is still no USB3 and SATA III support makes it even more pointless. The only reason I could justify the upgrade for myself is if I was using a quad gpu system as the gains are substantial.
