I'll be happy when a dualcore costs $200 or less.

AMD needs to get a dual-core CPU under $140 like Intel has.

Wow the price war is ON! If X2 prices really drop 50% thats huge and will make AMD at least an option when conroe comes out.

Hey, T-H on Monday had an article that stated, "AGP is still alive!"

I believe that a few of the AM2 Mobo's still have AGP available. Just keep searching NewEgg and the others.

Hmm...my 939 board isn't looking like too bad of investment after all. Might upgrade my San Diego chip earlier than I expected....
