Ok...there seems to be a bit of a disconnect here as to what I originally created this topic for. I don't mean to sound rude, but I specifically asked about what I needed to do in regards to my system before swapping out my CPU and motherboard, NOT why I should get X over Y CPU - my decision has already been made. I've already stated my reasons why I'm moving from AMD to Intel - I do nothing that involves multi-threaded performance like streaming or video encoding or the like. I need strong single threaded performance, and the AMD doesn't provide it, no matter how many cores it has. I have the intent to upgrade to a K CPU in the distant future. This discussion about getting X over Y is over, ok?
That being said, if you guys have anything to add about things I need to do before making the parts swap, feel free to enlighten me.
