Known this for months already, i5 and the i7 860s is a tough choice. ***Intel i5 Lynnfield Reviews Are In!***

A new price performance king is in town. Hail to the Core i5 750!
aghhhhhhhhh i bought the i7 2 months ago and now there is a better one and cheaper :( fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Same! oh well i7 is fine for me
Well if you already have an i7 there really is no reason to fuss, in fall 2010 or winter 2011 the i9 should come out so might as well start saving your money =pAs for me the new CPUs look pretty promising. Looks like i'll be saving some money for the spring for a nice upgrade
Hmm to get an i5 or wait for the 6 core i9's.....

why not?
The inconsistent performance results when they were comparing an AMD Dragon system with Phenom II against an i7 machine. The performance numbers were drastically skewed in Intel's favor, leading us to believe they are willing to take bribes in order to skew results in the favor of one company (although the i7 machine would've won anyway, it discredits the actual performance level of Phenom II).
When can we buy i5's and mobos? Anyone know about what price?

True Intel shouldn't have to skew numbers if their processors are going to win in a benchmark anyway. Personally I like both companies but in the end it's my wallet that will decide which of them I go with. I'd sure like to see some more affordable X58 motherboards.
[QUOTE=''Nokanhav'']When can we buy i5's and mobos? Anyone know about what price?[/QUOTE]
Perhaps they may even release a new chipset my friend. I'm not sure. My best guess though is that hopefully some new motherboards will be out in the coming weeks. As for the price I'd say hopefully $100-$150.
Nevermind. i5's and mobos are showing up all around PC building sites like ibuypower.

I doubt AMD will over take Intel any time this decade. AMD is still having money problems while Intel is solid. Intel is also close to releasing it's 8 core processors for servers probably in the next few months. The best AMD can do is lower their price to give their consumers a cheaper alternative. With Intel releasing chips like the I5 which costs less and give better value, I doubt AMD can do much.
