quad Cores

[mitchellds]

I see Intel just slashed prices massively especially on the quad core Q6600's. The are now only 266.00 ea., and sold out at newegg.com I guess I'll order a couple more at this price.

AMD really needs to get that Barcelona quad core out asp (Aug release now), and make it price comparable. I hear that they are going to release the early cores running at a low 2.0 ghz. Hopefully the internal core magic is strong enough to keep pace with the Q6600 at the lower clock rate. Only time will tell.

I would love to upgrade my dual socket F to 8 total cores. That would be the bomb.
