So, I'm here in dual core world. Kinda sucks. It's not enough. I needz the quads corez or morez.
I'm currently in a Asus Rampage Formula X48 motherboard (LGA 775) with 4x1GB of DDR2 and a C2D E7200. So, cheapest option would be a Q9550 or something like that. Next option is Core i7 930/920 but that's going to cost a lot more because I'd basically have to get a new motherboard, new ram, new CPU. ($80 + $160 + $250) Then there is Sandy Bridge which is just around the corner apparently, but how much will that cost? ($80 + $200 + $300?) I don't know how well those will overclock either. :/ (And I likes teh overclawkin')
I could go AMDs way too I guess with a 1090T or something, but they seem to be below what Intel is offering speed wise.
Ideas?
