Actually im buying for my wife. she asked me she want intel i5 product. for me rather go for i7 or Phenom II, since i5 is comparable to Phenom II.
If i buy phenom II, most possibly i go for Asus Turbocore then it should get more performance, even using X4 965 IMHO. |

great news AMD is really pushing hard, what i dun understand is that when 3 cores is idle, 3 cores get boosted up. Whats the reason just say if im nt stressing the chip and 3 cores is boosted isnt it a waste of energy. I dun really understand the reason behind this technology.

I dun really understand the reason behind this technology. it's not like that... if not stressing them.. the cores just idle..if only when using the software which not have benefit on extra cores.. like use 2 cores like that.. which favour on high speed.. so the remaining 3 cores just idle n another 3 cores getting the boost needed.. |

It is really good for normal users.
Think about only 1-5% on the world knows overclock which the rest dont. It benefits alot actually  |
