Especially for that price and that low clock and the fact it doesn't even reach i7 speed per clock most times.(only with the higher turbo mode)


the dualcores are not that intresting for dolphin as the turbomode doesn't overclock 1 core as high as the quadcore do while being nearly as expensive.


the 860 should be around 150€ (180-200$ ?). that would be acceptable price compared to 955 and 965 phenom 2.

Yes that woul be a good price. I'd buy one if they were priced like that.

Here are the prices and specs by the way: http://www.guru3d.com/news/intel-core-i7-i5-and-i3-prices-and-specs-confirmed/

Anyways, will the i5 have a better speed clock to clock then the C2Q's?
