Intel will be soon giving away the old "P4 Netburst cores" in cerial packets lol, the basic design is nearly 7 years old.
Would you buy an 7 yr old car design as a new car? i think not

With some jobs like audio/video encoding they are 60% to 80% faster at it, of course you need to know which software to use.

i never seen a temps of conroe where are they?how high is going?
(dont wonth to buy something that can burn my mbo like amd tunderbird

hehehehehe)

The temps are the lowest I have ever had. I'm getting 25 deg idle now. It's about 22 deg in the room, so I do mean low temps. Under load I can get it to 36 deg.

I can't believe my cpu hasn't seen 100 deg fahrenheit.

my comment was long time ago

it seems that conroe is preaty good but allso price is rather high

p.s.my old 945 is working at 23°C idle and that is preaty good for Presler dual core

its being shiped Mon.

im getting the Core™2 Extreme 6800 i have the Asus P5w DH deluxe

see how it runs with 2 7800gtx /512 video cards in sli.

Umm, that Asus P5W DH Deluxe has two slots but it's a Crossfire board, and won't work with SLi.

On the question of Conroe - what can I say! I've made the switch (mind you I still have a second system that is still AMD 939-pin, and might reassemble the previous AMD, once I get new case, drives, and etc...). And since I wanted to use the copy of Vista Ultimate that Microsoft was so generous as to give me, I chose a Quad Core and 4GB of memory.
