If you say the i7 price point isn't that big of a deal, go for it. Best choice I made when building my new PC. It's blazing fast; you especially notice it in day to day activities, like using WinRAR, and converting music and video files.
It is going to cost a bit more then the older processors, so likely you can pick up the processor for $340, the mobo for however much, and 6 GB of DDR3 for $120 (NCIX this week). It'll be money well spent.
