the debate between cpu processing power can continue on for ages
but which will be the dominant socket for intel?

775 had a long run
from p4>pen D> dual core>c2d>c2Q
notice the evaluation in temperature
*note to pen D to dual core*

im hoping the newer batch of upcoming 1366 will have better temps

agree with hengmy on point 3 & 4
unless your seeking multi gpu ad higher bandwidth on rams
then stick with p55
