As always it's the age old problem of should-I-wait-or-buy-now...

Got an Opteron 146 @ 2.7ghz at the moment. Would I see a big improvement going to an E6600 and trying to squeeze some extra out of it? Mainly just surfing/gaming.

Cheers

Also would a Hiper 580W Type-R psu be sufficient to power it?
 
Hmm, guess what I'm getting at is will there be something bigger fairly soon?

Or will there be any significant price drops soon?

There doesn't seem to be any reason to buy any kind of AMD chip at the moment so do they have something planned that's going actually provide competition?
