heh that's pretty much what i'll be doing, evo Wink

PCI-E, of course... AGP 8x may be competing now but PCI-E is taking over in the future.

my pretty new DVD burner will be here in a couple days too!

some of the latest show PCIe beating AGP in terms of performance, albeit only in the high end $500+ cards. And I'll definitely going PCIe though I'm looking forward to the Venice core A64's.

Venice core for A64 is out. Consumes more power, minimal increase of performance over Winchester. Get the Winchester when it goes down in price.

amd64 is definitely the best choice for anyone who dont have a high budget in buying their pcs

intel is good if you have enough money

the 64 bit extreme edition version is good

Hmm, just wait for the new Dualcores, buy them or wait untel they get cheaper. If u arent interesseted in features like Vandepool or something like that, I think u will be fine with a normal CPU. Just wait for Dualcore ... they will dramatically lower the prices afaik.
