Absolutely the smartest CPU to buy for i7
Strengths: Great price; overclockability
Weakness: None
Has provided a wonderfully fast experience with the Asus P6T Deluxe at its default speeds; looking forward to overclocking (which all websites report to be very easy) right on up to 4GHz on air. There's no easy way to justify spending more on a 940 or 965XE when this one overclocks so easily.

Core i7-920 Quad Core Processor (2.66GHz, 4x256kB, 4.8GT/s QPI, LGA 1336 Socket B)
Strengths: Strong, fast, easily overclockable within reason with stock fan (1 Ghz with 5-10 temp rise)
Weakness: None
I didn't want to pay the premium for the latest i7 core, so this one is a bargain. Easily souped up to satisfy most people. Even stock speed is fast. I am not a gamer! I overclocked because I could.

Simply, Amazing!
Strengths: performance is top notch, do more in less time. Intel made one hell of a cpu with plenty of power!
Weakness: none
I just built a new pc with a Asus P6T Deluxe, 6 gig corsair ram 1333, ati 4870, corsair 750 psu. lil bit expensive to build a good machine but it is totally worth it. No Regrets.

very good
Strengths: very good memory bandwidth
Weakness: none
I was suprised that it has so high memory bandwidth. I put standart ddr3 1600 memory and got 28GB/sec. I was suprised! At the same time, before I had AMD cpu. The best AMD CPU (6core phenon) has only 14GB/s, but costs almost the same. Here, Intel really outperformed AMD (at the same price level!). I recommend i7-920.
