Recently the Amd Athlon 64 was released along with intels P4EE.  We aren't quit sure yet which one is better but we are doing tests at the moment to actually see which is better.  Although Intel has an L3 Cache inside, Amd has built a very nice 64 bit chip.  I am hoping to go with the amd athlon 64 3200+ this christmas because it is a lot cheaper than the FX, and it still has a lot of power to give.  The weird thing about AMD is that they barely use Megahertz.  Their 3200+ is really only like 2.2 Ghz, while the Pentium 4EE 3.4 is really 3,400Mghz.  If they are able to put out the power then we might as well not complain

NVIDIA VS ATI WHICH IS BETTER???

I used to have a geforce 4 ti 4200 128mb (TOP) ddr, while my friend had a geforce 4 t 4600 128mb (bottom) It was ok while it lasted but it wasn't strong enough.  For $160 that I payed it wasn't worth the price because i got a lot of lag on battlefield 1942 and I wasn't able to overclock it for nothing. 

After I got really mad at my card for my birthday I got a radeon 9800 NP and when I bought it it happened to be a PRO WHOOHOO!!!.  The only problem I am having so far is counterstrike is not working right, I keep getting a lot of lag.
