I'm reaallly tempted to. My cooler (Sythe Mini) also works on socket AM2 (which means it should work for AM3...right?) and my motherboard is dead anyway so I need to buy a new one...so the idea of going AM3 has come into my head. I really wanna try out that X3 BE, maybe get a fat 3.8-4GHz OC myself.
I could never overclock this Q6600 very well because of my chipset and 4 sticks of RAM, despite being a G0 stepping, so I know I'd get a performance increase on an OC'd X3...but it it worth losing a core?
