At least with AMD chips you can bench LN2 at max temps.

The I5 I have kind of goes nuts if it gets near a ice cube

I am still working on going i7. I will go i5 (err p55) when it is cheap enough probably. (sometime after p65 I suppose LOL)

AMD will be my main rig though, just can not live without that snappy desktop feel

I was thinking about it. Got rid of my classy and went with a Bloodrage and a more modest rig, but I still stuck with the i7 the P55 just didn't convince me.

How does the BI clock? I am curious on the cheaper boards... I've been burned before trying to save a few bucks...
