Like he said, Penryn isn't anything special... Just cause the current quads aren't 'true' quads doesn't mean they suck and 'true' quads will own them.
And you do get what you pay for.. E2180's may be a good value but they are NOT for builds with a GTX... the 1mb cache will hold you back in intense games.
Also thermaltake cases are not very good at all
It's not worth waiting like 4 months+ and wasting $90
