O.P. New PC
Let's see this battle go ahead, poll to make it easier.
Option 1:
CPU: AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+
Motherboard: Abit Fatal1ty AN9 32X (Socket AM2) PCI-Express DDR2
Option 2:
CPU: Intel Core 2 DUO E6600 "LGA775 Conroe" 2.40GHz
Motherboard: Abit AW9D-MAX Intel 975X (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2
Both options will have:
RAM: Corsair 2GB DDR2 XMS2-6400C4 TwinX (2x1GB)
Case: Thermaltake VA8000BWS Armour Super Tower - Black
HDD: Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 11 500GB 6H500F0 SATA-II 16MB Cache
Video: XFX GeForce 7950 GX2 1024mb
Both will be given an excessively nice cpu cooler so i can overclock like the whore i always have been
Already have 2x BenQ 19" FP91G+ TFT Monitors and 2x 200gb Maxtor diamondmax 10 IDE drives and a SoundBlaster X-Fi Xtreme Music.
Let the battle commence =p
edit: forgot to mention, i've always preferred AMD over Intel, but everyone at work has been more and more convincing to jump onto the core 2 duo bandwagon with the 6600 due to how nicely it can overclock.
