    WTB: Best socket 775 CPU for HTPC

    After i7 2600K...

    Hey, I am looking to replace my i7 860 with a i7 2600K. The later one has been out for a good while now and still at the same price. Upgrading now wouldm't make sense but I would like to know what is ahead of us in short term. New CPUs, platform, price cuts? Thanks, Serge
