Intel has won me over

Ok so I used to think Intel was the antichrist. I think I have an AMD t-shirt somewhere...time for a wardrobe change. This processor is amazing. I can run everything I want to on my computer all at once on high settings, quickly as if nothing else was running. Breath-taking. If computer stuff excites you, get this processor.

If they could figure out how to get Megan Fox to deliver this to me wearing nothing but high heels, it *MIGHT* be better. Maybe.

TOP CRITICAL REVIEW
Runs hotter than most...

Good processor... I guess.

Runs hot... I have been through 4 different heatsink/fan combo coolers to try and get this thing cooled at stock settings, using arctic 5 paste on my Gigabyte x58A ud3r version 2 and I can't get the CPU to run lower than 47C and 70C when stressed. 4 other case fans and a full flow of air in a 70F room.

Need to spend $1,000 for a six core running at 3.3 and I won't need to overclock to work with HD Video. Even with Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 and multiple video layers and effects, processor still get bogged down.
