I'd like to redirect everyone to my first post, I've changed it to include pricing for another Intel price cut and also information on the new A64 X2 and a bit about Core 2 pricing.

I like Intel because I still think the Blue Man Group is Cool.

I drink mostly local micro brews.

Someone has way to much time on their hands

HardOCP has posted Intel Core 2 gaming performance benchmarks.

Wow, what a dissapointment that is. Basically no difference at all with the Conroe's in gaming. I'm sure the multi media performance will increase, but now I seriously doubt if it'll be that large.

Hmm, now this really makes things seem like AMD will crush Intel again if that K8L is on time.

Ahh, now the media benchmarks are up: http://enthusiast.hardocp.com/articl...hlbnRodXNpYXN0

Core 2 does this much better, but once again the gaming performance is equal.

Now we also have Pricing:

Just to note, on the front page of Chemical Hardware I have a ton of Core 2 reviews up.
