yeah, I don't disagree with you honestly. It's more because of my timing and how recently I bought my quad (~4 months before i7's came out). If I had a q6600 or something, I'd probably be looking into it but for now I can't justify the cost/performance upgrade so I'll just have to have a little patience for the next SR2 equivalent to come along
