Hi. Its been a while since I last posted on this forum.

Well, I need to make some upgrades to my pc and I am debating to upgrade after Christmas which I will have ~$300-400 or should I save it for my b-day which is Jan 29 and then bump that up to ~600-700 and try for a C2D build?
Will the C2D and DDR2 ram be any cheaper after Christmas around my b-day?

I would save up and get C2D after Christmas. No one really knows how prices will be though. I'm guessing they will be lower, with Quad FX and Kentsfield out, but can't say for sure.

when will quad FX be out and how much??

Pairs of Quad FX processors are $499, $699, and $899. Motherboard is probably $250 to $300, and available in January-ish (I think)
