I took advantage of Newegg's recent combo deal and ordered the Core i5-4670K and ASROCK Extreme6 motherboard (and 16GB ram) to replace my E8400 in my development machine (main home PC). It turns out that the E8400 doesn't support the CPU features necessary to run the WP8 emulator, so it was time to update. I figured that since I was making the big switch (and reinstalling the OS) that I would make the move to an SSD at the same time. Not sure what I'm going to do with all this speed. At least it better be fast.
You know it's always fun to order new parts, but you always have that feeling in your gut where you are hoping it doesn't end up being a train wreck getting your stuff reinstalled.
