hey there
as you may or may not be aware im a bit of a noob, trying building a new machine.
my question is should i sit and wait for the Barcelona or just get on with it?
essentially its ganna be a gaming system and the opty may be a bit of overkill but i want it to go the distance and last for ages hence the investment
id prefer an AMD, but for preformance and price it seems to be goin the the way of the intel C2d.
im a little bit hesitant of the am2's because of the price seems way too low. so should i wait for amd's new chip or just jump into an intel system?
no doubt the new opty boards will be on the expensive side as will the chips when they come out and the 64x2 5400 are around the price i wanna pay.
the E6600's look to be the better option at the moment
if anyone could help me out that would be swell
spose i could just start my system
hard drive and case etc and wait, but thats not ganna work so well if the chip release is delayed
argh!
