Future proof go with the Q6700 or wait for the Q6600 with will launch January 7th or 8th. There have been some articles showing that to get the maximum performance from one of those shiny new 8800 cards you want to have the fastest possible card. It also seems that overclocking the Q6700 to 3.2 or higher on air has been relatively easy.

Fastest gaming performance now XE6800. This processors should carry you through the most of 2007 even if a few games do come out next year that support multiple cores >2.

Sorry to hijack this but, where you getting the X6800 for $750?
