I've waited long enough to do this. Last upgrade till the 5870 drops below $200. Then I'll get a second one for crossfire. After that it will be a LONG time before I upgrade again. Hopefully 4-5 years since must games are still only using 3-4 cores on a CPU.

Well I finally got my CPU. Easiest OC EVER!!! 4.0ghz just from changing the multiplier to 20X and putting the V-core at 1.41v. Wow, now I need to start working on the RAM+NB+HTT. Hopefully get the RAM stable at 1600mhz at 7-7-7-21 2t mode, and get the NB and HTT to 2600mhz.
