[QUOTE="pilehave, post: 528314, member: 71550"] If you need it ONLY for HTPC use I don't see any point in going beyond dual-core anyways, but soon the Athlon II X4 will be is as cheap as the current 45W TDP Athlon X2's, and then everybody will buy quad-core. If you need it for gaming I would shell out the extra cash on the Phenom for sure. What is really impressive is that AMD has managed to go from 45W TDP on a dual-core almost directly to 45W TDP on a quad-core within a reasonably limited timeframe. Intel hasn't been as fast on that front. [/QUOTE]
