Pretty soon i7s will be like semperons and crysis will be like tetris lol
6 core cpus?!?!

that's insane! 16 cores??? c'mon! I still use a single core cpu... i know that 16 cores monster is for servers but i will like to have one... is there a linux that supports that thing?
i dont think ppl realise servers often use 2 cpu's . so if the i7 had a server version it would be 2x8 = 16 (which 8 are physical and 8 HT which also gets me to the case that there is no real 8 core, only 4 cores and 4 hyperthreaded cores)

Eh, I'll settle with an i7. Plays Crysis like it's going out of style. Now we only need the GTX 3xx series and Crysis will be a thing of the past. :3
