@Eddie619: I'd say games alone won't benefit from 10 cores even in the next 5 years. Gaming just isn't CPU intensive relative to the tasks that actually use 8+ cores.
BTW, based on your name, I'd say you're from San Diego (619)?
@Dark_Matters: True. Sound will leak out of them but you'll get better positional audio. They sound great, but you wouldn't want to use them in a quiet room with other people around.
