I'm not sure what your intending with "this CPU". ASUS Striker II Formula is Intel x38/x48?? I would say if yor looking at LGA 775, go for an E8400/E8500, or at least a Q9400 if you want a Quad. Otherwise I'm not to sure, you need to give some more info here. Otherwise, wait, Intel has "i5" on scedule for June/July. Core i7 920 is the only other thing thats worth it, at this point. Hope that helps.
