^^ Very true. I have heard of someone hammering a socket 754 cpu into a 775 board so even the fact that it wouldn't fit doesn't seem to stop some people.

He wasn't telling you to get an e5200. I think he made that painfully clear. But he is right on the other aspects. An e5200 would most likely crush the 7750.
It wont be closed. Vernong is a mod and he is involved in the conversation.
I would like to see how the chips compare anyways. There has been a lot of speculation about the newer AMD chips in the forums here and the more numbers the better.
Btw, on a related note, Puddle mentioned an attempt at 4.1ghz with a 7750 BE on LN2?
