e8400 spoted

Cool, but too expensive!

I'm thinking more & more I might get something like that in a few months and shoot for 4+Ghz, instead of the Q9450 like my original plan.

It will run cooler, should overclock easier, and still have more cache, SSE4, and the other advances of 45nm.

I don't do any video editing, etc... so there aren't really any programs that I use that would take advantage of 4 cores. So I think I'd rather have 2 really fast cores with less heat & lower power consumption.
 
Im panicking because on Xmas ill have all the money to finish my rig, and ill be waiting on the E8400. I'm going to be stalking newegg every damn day to get it ordered. I am hoping that we don't get a stupid repeat of what happened with 8800gt's and sell out crazy fast.

Worse case this should push down the 6750's price and Ill just buy that :p
