You don't need a 4GHz processor for Blu-Ray playback. Even a low-end Core 2 Duo handles Blu-Ray just fine at stock speeds.

To back this up, my lil' e1200 chip @2.1Ghz(266fsbx8) in combination with a 2600 Pro handles 1080p mkv playback just fine.

hey! maybe i can afford one now!

I'm still waiting for the first quad-core under $100.

First one there, either AMD or Intel, wins my sale.

I might finally commit to buying a Q9550 now.

thoughtdisorder · Jan 16, 2009

I'm liking where these prices are going! With the current state of the economy, I can't help but think they will continue to go down.

Ditto Egg has the Q9550 down to like $306 now, it's getting pretty tempting.

The Phenom 9600 is very close, only $104 on newegg with free shipping. :rockout:

I'm loving these prices. And I really wish Intel would have released even lower end quads. I would have liked to see a Q4300 to contend with the Phenoms price point.

Mr.President · Jan 16, 2009

great news! Q9xxx is for sure now.

Damn -- wish I had a board with ACC. I'd buy that 9600, silly TLB or not (since with the ACC it'd probably overclock not bad).
