cujo... thanks for the link and your suggestion but I'm kinda of a die hard AMD fan and I already bought the AMD board so I can't switch even if I wanted to (witch I dont)

AMDs overheat, that's true, but that doesn't mean they are bad. it's just a matter of personal preference I guess when it comes down to Intel/AMD

and Zyk0tiK, sorry but I would NEVER EVER EVER spend 14K on a PC...let alone a MAC...lol
