seriously, why should one pay 14k for core2 based board when Nehalem's boards are available for 2k more and that the processor too is available for 15k. Just a thought.

I suggest you save money and/or buy nehalem config. It doesnt make sense spending so much money on an LGA775 board now. It wise to wait for sometime and buy the x58 board with nehalem core with some good 1066 mhz rams. With some bios updates in the future, you can buy and use beyond 2000mhz based rams.

but bro DDR3 cost bomb right now plus X58 motherboard are costs much more than X38 plus the nehalem will also costs much more than Q6600 which i plan to buy & plus right now there is no performance difference between i7 & quad core.

bro can you tell me prices of i7 processors & a good X58 board? if they suits me i can consider them

^^ That isnt a good reason to spend so much on a DDR2-LGA775 based motherboard now is it? Most People barely tweak settings like dram-fsb ratio, voltages, northbridge and southbridge. You have to look at price per performance ratio as well.

I would recommend waiting for a month's time. We should get better rams by q1 2009. It make sense that we should get atleast 2000mhz if someone wants to move. Too much latency is not worth it.

so you mean that i should change Ram to DDR3 but should stick to Quad core? right

^^ You should move to Nehalem or wait for Deneb. No offense meant, it will be really really stupid to pay 15k for X38 motherboard at this point of time.

^^ you are right. The whole platform is changing from ddr2-ddr3. With that kind of budget- its wiser to wait. Waiting for one month wont hurt if you ask me.
