I heard AMD is coming out with a new socket later this year... socket M@ or something?... Does anyone have any info on this?
 
Ah, thanks, I thought it was coming out soon. Would have been mad if a new socket came out 2 weeks after I build my new pc (which i'm doing next week)
 
Meh, the only thing Socket M2 will have over Socket 939 is memory bandwidth...socket 939 AMD64s still have much potential if you ask me and are more than competent

I am only going to seriously look into it either before Christmas 2006 or After Chinese New Year 2007.

My current rig should keep me going until then.
 
Meh, if it wasn't for memory bandwidth I'd still probably be suggesting XP-Ms as for less than 200 bucks you can get a decent motherboard and processor that can reach speeds competetive with todays processors

An overclocked Toledo or Manchester would last you quite a while though
