Intel has launched 16 Penryn (45nm) based processors. See the list:

Code:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Core™2 Extreme processor	QX9650	3.0GHz	130W	12MB	1333MHz	$999	NOW
Quad-core Xeon® processor	X5482	3.20GHz	150W	12MB	1600MHz	$1279	NOW-45 DAYS

Look at the lowest Quad Core: 2GHz, 12 MB cache (Wow!!!) 1333MHz FSB at only $209! ~ Rs 8.5K

I'm stuck with a Pentium D!! :(

Right time for upgrade depends on what type of work you do on PC.

Email + Office Applications = Once in 3 years will do too.

Photoshop and video Edit stuff = Once in 1.5 Years odd [HDD and RAM being main things]

Gamers = Once in 6 months if you want to run "THE LATEST" Stuff @ Max.

Casual Gaming and Usual stuff = Once in 2 years

I updated my PC Twice in 5 years

Celeron 600 D 64 MB RAM --> Sempron 2500+ 1.4 Ghz 512 MB DDR

--> AMD64 X2 4400+ @2.3Ghz with 1 GB DDR II

ON TOPIC

(45nm) based processors are great thing to happen for the Consumers.
It's cheap to produce, cheap for consumption, cheap to upgrade ;-)

45NM ROCKS!

the only sad thing is the retailers who WILL F**K UP THE PRICE for us.
