@darklord
see if i wanna buy a completely new rig the maths will be as follows for amd and intel

INTEL DUAL CORE

Intel Pentium d 820 - 13,000/-
ASUS 955 board - 10,000/-
512 MB DDR2 - 6,000/-

TOTAL - 29,000/-

AMD X2

4200+ - 24,000/-
ASUS A8N-E - 8,000/-
512 MB DDR 400 MHZ - 3000/-

TOTAL - 35,000/-

see now which is priced cheaper ... i totally agree that the 4200+ is in a league of its own but dude the price matters. maybe not for all but for some it sure does.

only thing i dont like is intel's every 6 month change in sockets and chipsets

... else i am very much satisfied with the perfomance and experience.
