Hi,
I'm planning to upgrade my 3200+ system to a dual core CPU, either S939 on
my existing board which runs fine, AM2 (which would require changing mobo,
memory and graphics card) or a Core 2 Duo (same). Any pros or cons from a
Linux standpoint? I know the usual hardware reviews like tomshardware or
Anandtech but they say little about Linux. Any while we're at it, which AM2
or 775 board has a usable SPDIF input? I would like to spare my sound card
... checked all the usual suspects here as well but no luck.
