trying to choose the best CPU

[DontStealMyFish]

ok, so you were saying the fsb when using the amd64 is 1600, or if taken as written 800, but what board supports that?

the new amd 64 bit bords socket 756 or 754 and socket 940 nforce 3 :-D

socket 939 amd64 processors are set to come out in apprx late march, im not fully aware of the advantages, but unless they decide to change the socket again soon after, itll give more options for upgrading the cpu if u choose.
