Need Computer help...

[Seanohue]

While we're talking computers, I'm wondering if anyone has a decent amount of info on the new Core i7s? There's not too much out on them yet, but I'm wondering if I should go for an i7 build which will run $1400 or stick with Core 2 Quad for under $1000. The Core i7 will be 6GB of Tri-Channel DDR3 and the Core 2 will be 8GB of DDR2. Consider this a budget gaming rig.
