    deffinately AMD chip if i were you, cost less and have more performance, make sure you get a socket 939 chip and motherboard tbh there are many out there but they offer less latency and loads of performance.....get your mother board first and from there on you should then start thinking about chip and graphics cards as u will know the specs that your motherboard have but honeslty get a 939 chip/motherboard prefferably a dual core chip and this time make sure you have a power supply with enough rating to power all your components lol

      Wow. He already stated that he wants an AMD processor and then you recommend that he should get one.

      I also have to state that your recommendation of a socket 939 instead of mentioning AM2 is a bit alarming. Socket 939s are old, not bad, old... and AM2s are out and damn cheap. He might as go with what's out now since it won't cost him extra and he'll be better prepared for the next wave of AM2s to come out in the next phase.

                  yes, thats right,

                  but if the prices for those intel procs are as they are announced for now,
                  for a middle class you havet to pay like +300$, and AMD proc with same
                  performances is around 900$,

                  so in any case, its better to go for it....

                    I just got a 3800 X2 for $169 from Newegg. Don't know if it will be the same exact price for you, but they are definitely cheaper now.

                    Just like anything else, it all comes down to how much you want to spend. Give me an idea of what you'll be using it for and I'm sure between beanz and I we can guide you in the right direction.

                        Send us your money and we'll gladly hook you up with stuff with our prices, plus a little incentive. I don't know what you'd do about warranties though but if you buy the high end stuff, I'm sure that's not a problem. I can't think of the last time that I've ever had a part go out during the warranty period or in that fact, ever. It's been years. (/me knocks on wood.)

                            We've got all kinds of sales happening every week. I'm not kidding. There are tons of places to look online as well as the local computer shows and retail stores. I know some good retail sites online that have some great prices, when they go on sale.
