    The Q6600's your best bet if you havent got much to spend, it's cheaper than a Phenom, and will overclock better than the newer CPUs anyway, and is nearly as fast. I think they're a small amount over 200 US dollars.

    I'm not sure, I wouldn't expect so, because it dropped recently.

    There are new cards from both due out soon, so quite possibly.

    I agree. The Q6600 is the best deal for a cheap quad core. It can hit 3.2GHz easily.
