Hello, I'm planning on replacing my old AMD K7 (slotA) with a new motherboard/cpu. I've really liked AMD and their pricing and I've been using AMD cpu's since the K6-2 300MHz and on... Now I feel that Intel has dropped their prices and are being really competetive with their P4 processor. What I'd like is to have some comments and thoughts on what to choose?! Rambus is to expensive and not that good so I was thinking of either a P4 with DDR-memory (SiS 645, Intel 845E or 845G) or a Athlon XP with DDR333-memory. Does anyone know of the integrated graphics of the Intel 845G chipset is supported under X? As I have understood it the 845E chipset lacks the support for DDR333 memory that makes the 845G a really good chipset competitive with rambus systems. My impression of chipsets are that VIA-based systems have higher latencies and have had more bugs during the years... Comments? Thoughts? Recommendations? btw, does anyone know of any SMP-motherboards for the P4? I've only found really expensive server-boards for P4 Xeons...
