Edit: Looking at his current specs, he'd have to change the mobo for an i7.
Why?

Doesn't an Intel E7200 use a 775 and an i7 use a 1366/1156 depending on which one; if he installs on the current HW then upgrades to an i7 that sounds like a new mobo to me.
I don't know anything about Intel, but I see what you mean. I didn't notice his mention of a future upgrade. I was just thinking of whether it would install on his current hardware or not.
