Hi have just read an article on Anandtech on the upcoming Sandy bridge. The previous info on fixed bus seems to be true, meaning that overclocking is only possible using CPU multiplier and this will remove most of the fun in overclocking today...
I think its a bad idea and depending on AMD's upcoming Bulldozer performance (and AMD's decision whether or not to follow Intel) will be very interesting and this may actually turn bad for Intel.
The 890 Chipset from AMD is ahead of Intel, too bad the CPU's are not, if AMD has a good chipset and a good CPU I may make the jump or rather wait for LGA2011.
