"I am glad AMD has been sticking with cross platform socket types."Thats a problem too, the less pins the less data going in and getting out of the cpu, so even if they made a 5ghz quadcore it wouldnt give you much of a speedboost since data input/output would bottleneck performance.

I don't really see the point in this. The only way the i5 would be of any use is if the motherboards were much cheaper and the processors are much cheaper. As for cpu price the i7 is almost the same and I am sure will preform better. So why introduce this at all? It doesn't make sense to make cpus for 3 different socket types. Should just keep Core2 as budget cpu and i7 as high end. I am glad AMD has been sticking with cross platform socket types.

f**k you intel for this nonsense-$hit! why build cpu's with the same speed than the excisting ones? They just make dumb people buy this crap for a reason no one knows

Hyper threading was originally used because the P4s were not too efficient. It allowed the CPU to do two different things at the same time,assuming that the threads used different parts of the CPU.

Why are they going backwards instead of moving forward? shoudn't they make i5 before they release i7 ? i5 < i7 No. of Pins Im just saying =)

Anon @ 3:14 You're a moron, you no longer get to speak for being so incredibly stupid.Vivid, a 10Ghz carrier signal, and a 10Ghz processor are not one in the same. If your cellphone had a 10Ghz processor in it, with today's die-size technology, it'd be so hot it would quite literally melt the exterior of the phone. Heck, even 4Ghz processors require considerable sized cooling solutions, be they air or liquid.

So is this better than the JUST released i7's? Or is it a more affordable lower end model? The numbers I'm seeing are not very impressive, quad core is nice but it's only 45nm. Intel just started designing 32nm chips, when will we get to see those? Aswell the price point is nice but not amazing considering the un-impressive clock speed, when will we go beyond the standard 3.0 Ghz clock? hell I've seen wireless phones that run at 10Ghz (yes they are the same thing) I'm confused how this is big news.

Umm no not all current intel cards support hyperthreading. Only the i7's, a pentium 4 and pentium D had hyperthreading.
