i do alot of dvd ripping and encoding,web surfing,blu ray movie watching and very light gaming.or should i just wait for sandy bridge.i am not ina rush just want to buy the right parts the first time

That depends on your total budget. P55 boards are cheaper and X58 boards are expensive. If you do have a budget planned out for LGA1366, then i7 950 should be the ideal choice now, after the price cut.

Sandy bridge will be launched in January, and you, just like me should wait because you're not in that much of a hurry.
