Hello, I was wondering if the bump in CPU performance with the i5 750 is worth the lost of dual 16x PCI-E lanes when compared to a 955BE. -at a 1080 resolution- Thanks for your help *i love your videos! *

LOL
well since im building during my winter break from college, im just going to wait for the 6000 series and run either a 955 or a bulldozer, possibly a sandy bridge but i don't like intel or nVidia, except the 460 which is amazing and the reason i was thinking of running an AMD/SLI or i5/SLI

thanks for the help though
