Considering building up an intel system, to see whether or not the grass is greener on the other side. Cause for the most part my allegiance has been too AMD, cause i really love my old stuff Barton core. Finally decided that my barton has seen enough and its days are numbered, now that lead me to consider maybe making the switch to Intel.
Question is how is the Pentium 531 are far as emt64 processors are concerned, cause at first glance looks pretty nice. So we are all clear this was the one i was looking at 531 Processor Would that be good for me, cause im looking to do mostly linux based stuff which doesnt really say what kind of user i am. Also though i wanted to be able to throw on win xp and do some sweet wow especially when the expansion comes out.
If anybody would like to leave some post back feel free too. :)
 
Why dont u go with the Intel 630???
Its better... 2mb cache... SpeedStep technology...

and its often times cheaper than the 531 and 530J
