Having this week installed bigger PSU and second 1GB GTX 460, I am sure that my i7 930 system will be fine for a good long while.
However its easy to see why people are in such a state of 'should I upgrade or not'. After all the majority of online and magazine reviews of Sandybridge that I have seen claim its release has 'blown the previous generation out of the water' and 'consigned them to the scrap heap'. Clearly this is vastly exaggerated, but the average consumer can't help but bring into question their current system's longevity, even if they know its all in their mind!
Sandybridge sounds wonderful, but having just gone SLI this week, with a PSU that is probably overkill, I figure I should get off my rear and finally get into the world of overclocking - taking my standard clock i7 to at least 3.6 as a start.
Just need to search out the overclocking guide...
