QUOTE(imrozx @ May 22 2007, 07:16 PM) i dont think so... look at this...  E6750 which is better than E6600 is more cheaper. now the question is, whether it works on LGA755 with P965 chipset. and how good is the perfomance, i mean in overclock ability. as the bigger FSB. Im still in dilema because E6750 is way lot more cheaper than E6600. is it good for me just to wait or quickly grab E6600 and wait for the E6750 to drop price again?  22 jully is not a long wait. i think. 200+ save... any point?.... help me. Just wait lah, around 2 months only

if Intel tend to slash again the price of c2D, I'm wonder how much AMD X2 will cost after that...  And yet this is a never ending war of price between this two great manufacturer... for TS, wait and wait, soon ur current system will be no more value after that, better upgrade now and sell off ur current rig, you can get some money to topup for the upgrade...

One downside to Intel's price drop. AMD may lose the race entirely!!! Then there will be no competition and Intel's monopoly will drive up prices again! Could this be a possibility? So far, AMD has nothing yet to compete with Intel......  Competition is good so let's hope that AMD has an answer!

but now is still cheapest dual core is AMD's region, as low as rm240 u can own athlonx2 3600. Intel E4300 still need rm350 (bulk), and Intel mobo is usually more expensive, due to the memory controller being chipset dependant for intel mobo, some cheapo intel mobo will have performance degradation. so i think, in the lower price segment, amd still wins. But with budget higher than rm400 might as well venture into intel.
