Hi... Im choosing between these 2 CPU's...

Amd 5000 black edition

and

Intel E4500 (2.2G)

There are about the same price in the market...

but then.. i have concerns regarding the news that am2 socket will be dead soon... and i am aware that in the near future i may need an upgrade.. probably if i choose E4500 might upgrade it to wolfdale processor.. but then i dont kow if in case i choose 5000 black edition if there will be anymore new processor that amd will be producing for the am2 socket...

i want to know what are the cons and pros for this procs.. in terms of overclocking ability,heat management, power consumption.. etc...
