If you are talking about the EE processors due in Q4, the price difference will be anything but slight compared to the 2600K for example. Maybe the quad variant will be cheap(ish), but I don't see the 6 or 8 cores being any cheaper than other EE CPUs. They always carry a huge premium.

Spoiler:
Yeah, I was talking about the normal cpu's like i7-860 vs i7-920. The sixcore 970 is 500 eu now, that used to be much more. I expect intel will have a semi-affordable sixcore on the new socket.

Oh they will do, especially with Bullsnoozer coming. I still think there should have been a six core with the initial SB offering but Intel is not following their conventional launch philosophy at the moment. Usually we get the high end chips simultaneously but we are going to wait almost a year for Socket R

My mistake.
I'm not sure if this is the right place for this, but I didn't want to start a new thread.
ArmA 2, by default, only uses 1536MB of RAM. If I use maxmem, it's going to use 2047MB, right?
I have 4GB RAM and find it frustrating when ArmA is lagging and memory isn't even 50% full...
I've tried lots of maxmem values with older arma versions, as far as I know it doesn't do anything.
Im planning to upgrade my PC within the next few months.
Things im set on is.
Obsidian 700D
Gigabyte P67 UD*
i7-2600k
Corsair XMS3 8gb
Radeon 6950 2gb
OCZ Vertex 3 SSD 120GB.
Im wanting to watercool it, but im unsure about the waterblocks needed. I cant find any socket 1155 waterblocks. Or waterblocks for the 6950. I think im being daft somewhere along the line, Could any of you guys help me out with what blocks are compatible with both.
thanks in advance.

Socket 1155 is identical to 1156 with regards to cpu size and mounting points, any 1156 kit will do.
Why do you want to watercool it and have you done it before?
