I'm an AMD kind of guy, mostly because that's what I grew up using on the family PC and what is most suggested here...
However, a few people have came to me with requests to have a PC built for them. I'm very fluent with building computers, however as odd as it sounds I only know about AMD setups. When it comes to Intel, I have no idea.
For example...
754 socket is the AMD socket that's more or less being faded out. 939 is the new thing most people are suggested to get when upgrading. 940 exists as well but mostly as server sockets as I'm aware.
Okay, that's all well and good. But what about Intel? What sockets are the AMD competitors of the s754, s939, s940, etc.
btw - Is there some kind of web site I can just read and read and read and within a days time know anything I want to know about RAM, bios settings, how a CPU/mobo/graphics card/anything else works? I have a lot of interest in this stuff and a few hours of free time every morning, figured I'd ask.
