Hey guys, Well, My specs of my current system is listed in my signiture. I am thinking on upgrading in a couple of months or so. Would it be worth getting a i-7 930, new mobo and ram. And would my current psu be sufficient for the hardware upgrade. Or should I wait a bit for more offerings from AMD's bulldozer. Not sure what Intel is going to come out with. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. I am sure that Steve-O will have some kind of AMD input lol. Thanks gang, Ernie |

Wait till the new mobo series comes out from Intel, and then wait a little bit for them to fix it, and then wait a little more for the prices to fall to something sensible. Replace Intel with AMD. |

If you want performance, AMD has nothing on Intel. You get what you pay for. What ever you decide, you should get an ssd drive to go with. |

if you're just looking for something to hold you over you could try to find a Q9450 or higher either new or used somewhere. probably end up being the best bang for buck assuming you can find one. |

Ya, I think I will hold on th what I got for now. See what AMD's new Bulldozer will look like stacked up against Intel's Sandy Bridge. I know that the Sandy Bridge will not be a good over clocker though. I read that you will only be able to get 2-3% max o/c. So, intel is trying to block the over clockers.
