In your position, I'd rather just upgrade to a 970, and call it a day.

Wait for socket 2011, aka X68. Going from X58 to P67 is kind of a lateral move. If you're ITCHING like I do quite often for something new, it could be fun though.

Yes - u read correct - 2500K/2600K can be overclocked up to 5.8GHz (2600K best stable so far with Liquid nitrogen). Air chilled 2600K can run ~5Ghz without any problems (~70°C on full load).

P.S. Ivy Bridge CPU's will be capable with P67

Why would X68 impact someone's decision to buy P67? We know how this plays out. It will be minutely better performance, primarily in multithreaded apps and it will cost more. Remember this is supposed to be like the relationship between 1156/1366. So just ask yourself, if sandy didn't exist which would you buy? 1156 or 1366?

I run my 2500k at 4.9ghz, I moved from a p55 setup. I'm glad I did, but I always have to play around with the latest stuff that comes out. I'm really looking forward to seeing what bulldozer can do.

If you don't have the itch, there's no need to do anything now. Since you're already on an X58treme setup, no reason to switch to the new P67erformance before X68treme comes out.

If you could sell your parts for a bit more than a P67 system, I'd go for it. Because could get the same performance, some extra cash and lower power usage. Otherwise no point.
