i think i7 965 better to buy and i can use over 15 years before to buy a new, but of course is too expensive for now and i will wait when the price is down.

costly processor prices and yet only basic applications are being used. i think that processing speed is for power users who can afford it. but for budget minded users they’ll stick with the cheaper ones.. hehehe

I agree with Andre. Don’t be too eager to buy this stuff hold on tight for a couple of months.

saving for the “Intel Core i7 940 2.93GHz”. If i were rich i would go for “Intel Core i7 965 3.2GHz Extreme Edition ” too bad i ain’t

@issai, for the past couple of year the GHz rating of most CPU has not gone up significantly. The last time I saw a 3.4GHz CPU was with the Intel Pentium D 965. Intel and AMD are playing the multi-core game. But for tasks which require brute force — say for example computing Pi — those will still be done better by the faster clocked CPUs.

processor speed will be irrelevant when the slowest part of using the computer is the user.

How can processing speed be irrelevant?

The question is: will processing speed beat imagination?

does this mean this is not yet the end of moore’s law? i might get these once they’re mass produced, it will help with the cost.

yuga, when do you think that the speed of the processor would be irrelevant in desktops?

I’d still rather go for AMD counterparts. Intel still has the nerve to charge so much because AMD hasn’t gained enough ground yet, hopefully Deneb and Shanghai will change this, even just a little…

And even more hopefully, AMD’s Bulldozer core will be able to at least level the field.

mmmm juicy, might wait for prices to come down
note to everything, this means ram, motherboard, processor all have to be changed so if you’re thinking about getting a new system, wait a bit for the prices to go down then get one of these.
