Considering the fact that P2-920 is only DDR2 and HT 2.0 compatible, I feel its better to wait till the HT 3.0 and DDR3 capable P2-925 come out.

OR get a cheaper ~8K worth Athlon X4 2.8GHz CPU which is supposed to launch soon.

But speculations are DDR3 P2 will be a bit costlier and only 5% faster...

No, well assuming he's not stupid to not hav read than i7 + mobo combo costs 32k +
, then he's referring to the C2Q Q8xxx and Q9xxx series.

what i meant was in competition with Quad series both p2 fell between INTEL'S Q9xxx and Q8xxx... 4get bout icore series.
And amd Themself said that they are competing Q9xxx and Q8xxx....

we will have to wait for am3 boards and proccys to arrive in feb

and there is goin to be a price cut in 1st week of feb from intel for quads
amd is going to follow that later...........

But same approach will be taken by Intel in anticipation so Intel offerings should stay rosier then AMD's.
