I am running a quad Q6600 at 3.6Ghz, on a dfi X38 motherboard.
I have not paid too much attention to hardware developments recently, but i know that currently everyone is talking about X58 and i7. Some even think that phenoms are a very good alternative also.
In terms of performance/bang for buck....how much "better" is a recent X58 system w/ DDR3 and core i7? How overclockable are those? (air) ? Is the dfi X58 board still a "good" choice? I am with dfi for a while already - the prices for the Asus rampage boards really scare me!
