Re: AMD Phenom II x4 955 Black Edition

That's a decent build the i5 will be out and Motherboards and CPU will be over priced for at least 6 months if it's anything like the i7 it'll 4 months to get the bugs worked out. I don't always like being the first to try new products let them get stable first.
