Well AMD did recently have a huge price cut due to the AM2 sockets... but yeah I'd reccomend just go dual core. I have a 3000+ Venice and I wouldn't want to get a 3500+. I'd just go and spend the extra $50 or so and go dual core. Good investing, right?

Hey, I was just wondering where I can get a good bargain for a PCIE 16x card at. Some of them seem to be very high, but I would prefer one that has high graphic processing power, and one that does not heat up like a toaster. =P
