Ok, now I know I'm not all knowing with computers, but I know quite a bit having built a few of them. One thing has been bothering me though;
I know that there is a considerable difference with 64 bit cpu's, but what is it? I'm sure there must be some reason why I see so many people preffering an AMD64 @ 2.2+ ghz over an intel @ 3.0+ What kind of difference is it? Overall speed? How would I have to use the computer to be able to notice the difference? I always thought the more ghz and fsb the better, then how come AMD's seem to always be one step behind intel? I never see an AMD @ 3.4 ghz.
Anyway, sorry for so many questions, but I'm really curious...
