Okay, I really, truely do not understand what the big difference between the i3, i5, and i7 is. The i5 2500k and i7 2600k look just about the same, aside from a 0.1 ghz increase from the i5 to i7 for a $150 increase. (Kinda expensive...) What am I missing?
Also, the i5 isn't much more expensive then the AMD FX-8120. (About $50, even if it is four cores less.)
Is the new AMD FX-8120 3.1GHZ eight core processor worth the $200 price tag, and do you guys think that companies will take advantage of all eight cores?

Getting a six core would save like $20 or $30, but I'd have to upgrade eventually.
