Better yet, a rumored 2.66GHz/1333MHz Core 2 Duo E6750 will tumble down to just $183 in the third quarter.
doesn't this processor cost around ~$800 right now? if so then thats a very impressive cut 8O .
For that kind of cash I'd upgrade my four week old e6600 (Vue would love that kind of oomph).
Would a quad core really be better than a dual core for a gaming rig?? I haven't seen any conclusive test that show a sizeable difference in benchmarks to warrant going quad over dual or is the quad mainly a server cpu??

Every test (and there is quite a few) out there shows that a faster clocked dual core is better than a slower quad for gaming.
