By the time quad is fully used in games we will have 8 core, then have people saying the same thing about that its the best thing since sliced bread :p. But IMO whatever the case will be, i can see 8 core starting at 1.8-2.0ghz for the lowest end chip, then that will cost £200+.

im not sure, ive not heard much on that front. Maybe its only a small percentage quicker over wolfdale etc.?

Put it this way, what are people more likely to buy if we get cheapish quads at stock speeds of 3.0 ghz or higher and then 2.0 octocores?

So how much longer to wait and how much faster? everyones opinion is welcome.
