Hi ,
I'm just about to purchase the parts for building my new gaming PC ,
I was decided to buy Intel Core i7-860 Lynnfield 2.8GHz LGA 1156 =280 $ & ASUS P7P55D-E Pro LGA 1156 Intel P55 S = 190 $
Until I did a further search & reading about different CPUs , I found that :
Intel Core i7-930 Bloomfield 2.8GHz 4 x 256KB L2 Cache 8MB L3 Cache =280$ & ASUS P6X58D-E LGA 1366 Intel X58
= 210 $ "After 20$ promotion"
Is it better than the 860 ? the 2nd combination is 20 $ more ,
If so , which one of the following memories is the best :

Ok ,
My other components are :
Heatsink : COOLER MASTER Hyper 212 Plus 30$
Thermal paste : ARCTIC COOLING MX-3 = 15 $
GPU : ASUS GeForce GTX 470 (Fermi) = 350 $
Power supply : Antec TruePower New TP-750 750W Continuous Power ATX12V V2.3 = 115$
SSD : OCZ Agility 2 OCZSSD2-2AGT50G 2.5" 50GB SATA II MLC = 190 $
So , please help me to decide whether 860 or 930 ? and why ? is it deserve pushing my budget for it ?
Budget around 1500 $ excluding the case ,,,
