Intel LGA 2011 roadmap : Affordable SNB-E and no LGA 1356

[Movieman]

i would agree on the xeon 6-core x58 platform but the i7 is targeted to gamers, and for games the 1366 is slower than the 1155 and its also slower than the 1156 clove for clock with a quad. sure u could get a hex core but the cheapest one is $600 and for gaming its still slower than an 1155 or 1156 quad clocked the same.

I agree for gamers but notice I said " for pure power"
In WCG my 2600K at 4634MHz does app 41,000PPD
My 80 year old Mothers 990x at 4154MHz does almost 49,000PPD..
