Ok, well I really do not speak like that in any manner...
BUT! I'm looking into getting a 4600 or 4800- AMD 64 X2 processor, either don't matter to me as their both really up there.
I know their supposed to be godlike in a multimedia stand point. Which is really my main point of attack, Video editing and Audio production. I also am going to do some gaming with either the 6800Gt or possiblly the 7800GT. I'm curious though, if the processor will handle gaming equally to, if not better, than a 3500 prossessor. From what I've heard is that dual core prossors aren't that good for gaming because it works just like a dual processor system... I'm just wondering how these CPU's handle gaming.
Also, if anyones used them how good they are for the video editing and such. I've been using a G5 Power Mac, and wonder if AMD will be able to smoke, or even touch the G5? The G5 is the lowest level dual prossesor I believe.
Oh, and can some one recommend a card or something for a dual monitor system? If I do dual monitors I'm most likely going to do the 6800GT's.
I'd like a motherboard with 2 PCI-E and 4 Ram slots. I just want the two PCI-slots for my dual monitors, and then 4 slots to do 2 gigs of ram dual channel with 4 512's.
Thanks guys. This is my first post here, hope it's not a horrible one
