Which is why some people are still getting the 2500K instead.

But +$150 for a 3770K (~$390) is totally not worth it.  2600K (~$320), maybe, but it feels kinda poo poo waiting for Ivy Bridge to get that.  Also the better GPU in IB - am currently using Intel HD 4000, but maybe I'll plug my GPU back in - SC2 seems a bit laggy if I don't run at minimum settings.  As you said, I don't really need it - I was quite happy with a Q6600 running at stock.
I probably would've gotten a 3930K if it could be gotten for $500, but it seems stuck at around the $600 mark.
