Yeah, for the 1%* of computer users in your price bracket the Core i7 is the best option this year. And high-end Westmere isn't until mid-2010. *Source: Intel

the Core i7 920 isnt expensive at all.. heck it very competitively priced vs AMD's best. Still even the Core i7 965 dropped in price a bit.
Plus there are still Core 2s that destroy AMD's Phenom II range in the same price range.
Still AMD doesnt need x86. They could switch sockets to ARM. Their Geode processors already support it. It is just that Microsoft doesnt support ARM with the main Windows OS so Windows will need a new version inorder to work. Windows Mobile works on ARM though...
