Myself, I would hate being without an everyday pc along with my bench rig. With the extreme cooling I use it seems my junk stays torn up constantly. Just got one of two rma's back this afternoon (two week turnaround).

Made a plan to stick with last week...I am going totally i7.

Everyday pc: Evga E757 X58 mb http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...tent-_-text-_-
920 CO cpu
Two Super Talent ssd's
Rounded out on air with assorted junk I already have on hand

Gamer pc: Evga Vanilla X58
965 EE cpu
Full compliment of water blocks on mb

Bench rig: Evga Classified
950 DO cpu (920 DO held in reserve)
SS phase unit by Sdumper

Of course I already have all these parts on hand from previous benching (with the exception of the E757 mb). Plans are for these rigs to last quiet a while with no further purchases except for maybe new benching vid cards later this year.
