This may be a no brainer for most of you but I'm feeling kinda dumb. I'm getting ready to build my first system and i'm trying to make sure everything is going to work together. I already got my MOBO a Asus PND2-SLI Deluxe and I'm getting ready to get my CPU I'm looking hard at the P4 650 3.4GHz I see that this chip supports HT but I'm worried about the EMT64. Intels website says the MOBO and BIOS must support 64 bit operations to work at all (which my board does) I already have WXP Home edition SP2 am I going to have to go out and get XP Pro64 or will my current OS work? I know that I'm going to be operating at 32bit I'm mainly looking for the highest speed i can afford (CPU speed and FSB) any input would be awsome thanks

Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
