i7 already won. Benchmarks and real world gaming have shown that the phenom 2permorms worse in games, but a little better in encoding. it costs as much as an intel q9400 and still gets beaten. its not such a good processor for 300$ get core i7. the only good thing is that you dont need a new motherboard.

intel is coming out with an 8 core and 12 core as well, but there will always be new technology. For example, 4 years ago it was all about the clock speed. 2.4 then 3.2. everyone is debating who would get to 5 ghz first. then dual cores came out. so now i think some new technology will come out. no one knew to put more cores. i guess we will see

Both are useless for gaming, so the i7 wins in pure performance for the workstation crowd.
