I have a QX9650 and a X3380 running at 4.1 GHz and I am definitely waiting for the newer CPU's (socket 2011) that hopefully won't come with an integrated GPU that I'll never use and limits bus clock overclocking.

Your current system is certainly not low-end so I'd wait it out a bit longer if you can resist the urge to upgrade....
