Why do that? Intel love making new sockets and the i7 doesn't even use the socket 775. At least if you go with the AMD the socket AM3 will be backwards compatible with the AM2 boards. Not that you get all the bells and whistls of the AM3 if you do that though. That's the way to look at it from an upgrade point.
775 was around for quite a while though.
