If I were you I'd stop spending all the money on these systems and just settle the fuck down. If you're chasing the absolute "best system" out there you might as well go chase a rainbow.
That's what I've been trying to do.
Everything is configured A-1 SUPAR!
Regarding the whole XP vs. A64 issue, thanks. I find it funny that the reviewers don't compare it to the previous generation chip, and instead a P4.
Don't they realize that most Intel fanatics around are the most closed minded people out there

? They seem to be reeling from the old Via/SiS days of the XP, at least the ones I've seen.
I have one friend who hates AMD with a passion.
Ironically, the only AMD shit he's used is the K6-2, and a 1.3 Duron Morgan.
Of course, the Duron is running off an ECS board

.
My friend is kind of one. He bought an Intel board because he wanted SLI.
Of course, he didn't know the nForce4 SLI was out at the time. Have fun gaming with your LGA775 shit mobile!
