AMD's new 4+ GHz (slot AM3+) 6 and 8-core processors are hitting the shelves in October. Also, PCI-E 3.0 video cards are going to be coming out soon (Radeon HD 7000 series). We're pretty much on the cusp of a new generation and investing in the current one is going to seem like a big waste of money very soon.
What's your budget?

I need a new desktop, but have decide to wait until the end of the year to see what develops. It will be interesting to see what the prices will be on this new stuff. I expect with the economy the way it is, that the initial pricing might not nearly be as high as in years past with new tech, but we will see.
Pants, have you seen anything on price ranges for PCI-E 3.0 or the new AMD cards. I have not looked around for any articles on the new stuff yet.
