I upgraded to the i7 from an Intel Core 2 Duo E8400. The main reasons I made the upgrade were: 1. Low power consumption (significantly lower than a Q6600 which is about $100 cheaper than the i7) 2. 8 logical cores available (quad core + hyper threading) 3. The ability to play cutting edge games that take advantage of all 8 cores.4. The potential ability to load share between CPU & GPU once Windows 7 is released.The upgrade might have been a bit premature, as the primary reason to buy an I7 processor won't be possible until Windows 7 is released. Windows 7 will allow load sharing between GPU (graphics card) and CPU. This will enable some really nice performance ... And you'll experience maximum performance for everything you do, thanks to
the combination of Intel Turbo Boost technology and
Intel Hyper-Threading technology (Intel HT technology),
which maximizes performance to match your workload. With faster, intelligent, multi-core technology that applies processing power where it's needed most, new Intel
Core i7 processors deliver an incredible breakthrough in PC performance They are the best desktop processors on the planet 4.8 Intel QuickPath Interconnect LGA-1366 package ... »»
