I've finally decided not to get a quad core once the price drops come. Now the big question is E6750 or E6850.

Anyone not going to quad, which of these two are you getting and why?

was thinking quad, tbh after 2 yrs, we r all still w8 on most common appz, games ect being able to run dual, never mind w8 ages for quad appz to appear

Those were pretty much my exact thoughts as well.

Plus, I currently have a 2100+ (OC'd to 2300+), 2GB PC3200 and a 6800Ultra and it gives me medium to high settings in all games. I work from home so spend all day in Photoshop with multiple projects open, multiple projects open in Visual Studio and usually connected to 20 or so servers through FTP. This doesn't include all the other programs I use at various times such as Flash.

I mean, if an old AMD can handle all of that without problem, I'm sure the E6750 or E6850 will be more than enough to get me through the next 3 years or so.
