Hi I'm building a new computer and was planning on using an Asus P4C800-E Deluxe mobo, but always wanted to use AMD. I've never sued AMD so I'm not fimillar with them. What would macth or beat an Intell with 875 chip and 3.2 P4?

If your not an aussie you can try newegg.com and look up the amd64. But i don't think there are any good mobos for that cpu yet.CPU: Opteron 165 @ 311x9 - 2817.8 mhz - 1.47v
Mobo: Abit KN8-SLI
RAM: 2x512 Crucial Ballistic Tracers500 @ 202 mhz 2-2-2-5 T1
GFX: Asus EAX1950pro @ 648/1408
PSU: Thermaltake 500w

Stick with the P4C800E but drop the 3.2 unless you plan on chilling it. The 2.4 will reach the same speed efforlessly on air cooling, and be faster at the same speed for a ton less money.
However, I would recommend to anyone planning to buy the 3.2 to wait for the 3.2 Extreme Edition.
On a side note, I hit 3.5ghz briefly today with my Aeroflow. :thumb:

Originally posted by Cpt.Crappygo with amd b/c it can have more clock cycles. just plain simple, if you have a lot of data but less ways to get in it's pointless to have a fast processor. true they don't move as fast but the new amd 64 will blow intel away. :shoot3:
It's funny to see how many AMD guys at my forum have been switching to Intel lately.

I think you need some schooling on this. Prior to the A64, Intel has been dominating AMD for some time now. Wait for their new processor, and we'll see some better competition.
Just remember horses for Courses mate. I have had my two Pc's with the Same Graphics card in. The Amd beats it by about 3K.
edit: I should mention that they both were clocked to the same speed ghz and had the same memory in.

Gigabyte has launch its variety of Athlon 64 motherboards at www.overclock.co.uk
