having just reconoitered the web i would now say six core has officially hit the mass market..either way just like qaud ..games still run fine on dual core until they even pull their fingers outa their arse,s and make a game that fully use 100% of the second core..and gets over 900 fps @640x480 with nvidia fog enabled

few games make use of quad cores, BC2 being the only game i know of that makes use of 4 cores, a 6 core cpu is just a waste of money at this point in time IMO.

Had FRAPS on last night and noticed I average 100FPS on BC2 on HIGH with Bloom disabled via config tweak. Makes sniping moving targets a lot easier.
