The G0 is an outstanding overclocker, but if you're buying now - read this...

45nm chips will boost Intel performance-per-clock almost 100% in some instances
http://www.xbitlabs.com/news/cpu/dis...808134025.html

The article is full of hype from Intel, but it's pretty clear that what they're saying translates to a reasonable gain (15-20%) in performance per clock for the new chips. The actual increase wont be anywhere near 115% like they claim, but even 20% is a large increase and worth waiting for, imho.

You should consider going with something really cheap for now and saving for the 45nm.
