Hey All,

Quick question, I am close to finishing my order and was just stuck with the idea of waiting for the new cpus due in Jan! Do you think it would be worth waiting 1 month for them or just order the Q6600 quad?

Reason I ask is im terrible for being patient but would wait if its the best thing (I plan to OC either way)

Cheers
Adam
 
My pain is currently I have nothing to play on, so waiting is gonna be a pain, im just thinking I might go Q6600 and then upgrade next year when prices drop, then I can sell and move on. I cant really believe ill notice a huge difference in gaming anyways,

(Thats it ill place my order and if somin new comes out oh well ill have to wait for it)
 
Well im gonna just wait for the revised GTS, see what the prices are like (Playing at high res so probably worth the little bit extra) then just order the quad!

Then worse case if the new cpus are amazing I auction this quad and purchase the new!
 
I decided to go with the q6600, I thought it would be best to go with this wait for the inital rush to get the new cpu is done and then sell this on and upgrade...
