Basically, I am building a new rig and need some advice as to which of the above processors I should go with, if either. I am on a budget, so I cant really afford anymore more expensive than those two. Thanks.
 
Q8300 would be my choice,I think you will get a better overclock with it too.
 
The Phenom II Tri-Cores are probably the best value processor out there currently. They don't measure up to the i7 processors, but they are less than half the price. The cheapest Intel Core i7 920 Nehalem processor is around $360 presently.
 
I've been watching newegg for awhile and i've never seen the 920 at $360
But they have been messing with the GTX295s it was Average price of $499 & $509 now it's $509-$519 :(
 
NewEgg was messing with their prices for some reason last night on many items. For a while the Phenom II 710 was about $150.

Edit: Now the price of the i7 920 Processor is $289. I wonder who is messing with the prices?


Maybe you were looking at the Canadian website.
