Did you see these announcements?:
- http://www.anandtech.com/show/11464/int ... for-1999/2
- http://www.anandtech.com/show/11482/amd ... -june-20th

Might be worth waiting for those ones....single core performance particularly might be much better, i.e. editing, viewport, single threaded programs....

Thank you for the links Jojojoj, but I am not sure I can wait for a new CPU since I've been waiting for ever praying that MAC will come out with something new :cry:. I might look into the i9 for future plans and check out user's reviews.
