Hi, Prophet, I'm planning on building a computer for the next school year and I'm currently in the process of selecting a mother board and processor.

I would like your opinion on buying a core i7 860 processor ($289)

or a core i5 760 (quad core) ($209)

I'm obviously trying to save money and get the most bang for my buck, but I would also like my computer to be fairly future proof. So, would it be in my best interest to go ahead and put down the extra 80 bucks for the core i7, or are the 4 cores just as good on the new core i5s?

If you want more info or anything, just let me know on my page or pm me.

Thanks
