Come on Toms article on Nehalem?

When do you think it will be time to stop building current systems and wait for the next socket types? Should we (builders) save the cash and wait for the launch or keep with the current tech?
Please use sources for "facts"

And higher IPC + new gen hyperthreading.

Frankly any current mid range core2 with a new high end graphics card in it is plenty enough to play all of the current games ... even a decent AMD system will do ok.

Sure there are a couple that you can't play in the highest res.

So with that in mind just buy a decent system now or upgrade.

Waiting for Nehalem will be wasting the opportunity now.

Live life now ...

You could be dead tomorrow.

Plus Intel won't release it till they either get some decent completion, or there is a big financial return. Currently they still have stock of 65nm stuff obviously, and the new 45nm penryn gear is only hitting the market in volume now.

Why would they undercut their own business strategy.

They aren't stupid like Nvidia.

NVidia stupid? Hell no! Don't lie about NVidia.

Stupid just isn't a strong enough word!
