The more cash you spend, the more cache you get...

the extreme edition offers little performance over the regular chips.

Thats a mistake. You guys listed the fastest clock speed. The fastest performing cpu is AMD. I think it runs a little over 2 Ghz. Check any of the reviews sites on the 64' s performance and it kicks intels ass.
To save money just get a 2.6c and oc it to 3.2 or higher. I still run intels and my next cpu will probably be a 2.4c/ 2.6c because they oc past 3.4 ghz. I am interested in the 64's but they are at a premium and dont oc too well. -jel
