If your thinking about teh Q8200, the Q8300 should be coming out pretty soon. + because the new i7's are coming out, prices for the 45nm should drop a bit.

Total

If you really want more CPU power badly, go for an intel build
AMD is coming out with new processors soon though, and they're backwards compatible, so this has an upgrade path
