As we had told b4, the past few months were not the best time to buy new hardware, this is one of those reasons.

After the release of the Phenom 2 series of processors, Intel is going to have another round of price cuts and new models soon.

This NOT the best time too, we are close to the launch of the Core i5. But if u wanna go with the core 2 family, this is not a bad time.
