err the Core i7 920 is only $80 more than the Phenom II 940.. how is that "through the roof"?
Frankly price vs performance the Cpre i7 920 is well worth the price versus anything AMD has.
@Wraith - there are plenty of reasons to have a dual core version. It would be way cheaper to manufacture, half the prioce for half the cores, and give performance equal to or better than the high-end last generation quad-cores.
