Rep Power: 1 | Even if they do get a price cut, it would be a huge one. Currently their cheapest one is about 8-8.5k. That would be almost a 50% price drop. What will they do with their dual core processors ?? Do remember, the Q8200 is a crippled processor..... |

Rep Power: 1 | Does the quad core heat up more and consume more power? |

Rep Power: 1 | nonono, it must be an Asus motherboard, your processor is either Intel or AMD. |

Rep Power: 1 | This is a very good offer from AMD, I wish they would make it cheaper though. Is there still no counter products from Intel? I really like it whenever some companies are challenging each other, it makes the prices of their products so low. |

Rep Power: 1 | Well quad cores do require more power (generally). I am having to get a new PSU as i have changed my processor (from E5200 to QX9650) |
