I'm thinking about getting a new motherboard and processor this summer, and I was thinking about goin all the way and getting SLI, since it's twice as good as AGP, but I heard that SLI isnt compatible w/ all games yet, so I dont want to get expensive hardware that cant run games to its full potential, but I cant remember if that's true or not. What do yall think?

Gigabyte K8NS-Pro
AMD64 3200+
PNY Geforce6800 GT w/ NV5 silencer
Antec Aluminum Performance Series I case
Maxtor 40GB HDD 2MB cache
2x CD-RW drives *one DVD burner combo*
Sound Blaster Audigy: Gamer
2x 120 mm Intake/Exhaust fan

Stock 3D Mark 05 score: 4344

Both AMD and Intel are good, AMD is better for data transfer and check any the test between AMD and Intel, with a lower speed processor they could outrun and Intel. AMD is also a lot cheaper, Intel on the other hand has less speed but more overall power. Basically if it's a gaming PC go for Intel, but if you are doing a lot of web surfing, picture editing or music I would go for AMD. I have a few PC's: 1 with an AMD 1300 Duron, 1 with a 1.7 P4, 1 with a 2200+ AMD Athlon, and 1 with a 3100 Sempron. I prefer the 2200+ over the rest (excluding the Sempron). I use it to run Halo online cause i'm to cheap to get an X-Box.
