no bro, check it out on google, other people report seeing the same vista score.

MY E7200 at 3.9 scores 5.9 ... guess you should "upgrade" to id for the awesome Vista score![]()
in an way yeah, i am more concearned over the longevity of a processor rather than the price. I just don't want to find myself in a position where i have to buy a new processor in a years time cos i baked the last one due to my own stupidity and i've never had a chip burn out on me, it would be a shame to start now. As i understood it though, or rather what i was told at OC, a majority of the games that were in the pipe line this year would be taking advantage of the multicore processors
If you still don't want to overclock, then I'll go with what rypt said. Wolfdale C2D now, C2Q/i7 later.
The vista score is rubbish. It does not give consistent results and it really doesn't mean anything at all.
you must be off you head mate! have you overclocked? my 8500 gets 5.9 in vista even at stock...
Some people shouldn't be allowed on the internet :/
but the one thing that lets it down (and this is just a small, small.... almost insignificant little niggle of mine) is that it only scores 5.7 in windows vista.
