The best position per dollar at the moment is to buy the used 2600K i7's. People start selling them because there is the new haswell or ivy-bridge processors. The difference in clock speed is only 0,1Ghz... and you can easily get them under 100$ ! Without overclocking they give around 4,700,000 pos/sec and that for a only 100$ processor. I just made a i7-2600k rig for 250€, in america it would be 250$.

So why go the extra 1,000,000 pos/sec for the higher price? Just buy 2 ;) And the AMD Vishera processors consumes way more energy and isn't even faster.
