The point is that having the newest processor may be good for now, but the full utilization through out the system is the problem now. Price, where does the price stand in relation to comparable chips. Being that many of these chips are new releases they have to comform to standards that are not posted and problems ensue. Just a thought. Tom Nadeau Speed matters most to me.
Price is secondary.
I've finally learned my lesson re. I'm waiting for RAM prices to fall back to reasonable prices. Tom Strickland you can't go wrong with the Intel brand name. David Cole newest, fastest, biggest, and best. Colin Matlack look forward to the day when price gouging will be a thing of past.
