Re: best chip set anyone?

fakespike, I would consider going to AMD processors. You will save money, and the floating point math is about 1.8 times faster than an Intel CPU of the same speed. If you want to know about the Intel chipsets, they have lots of information at www.intel.com if you will surf the site.

it is the best in my opinion and really fast

I own an Athlon 1700+ (that's 1.47GHz) overclocked to 2.2GHz seated in an Epox 8RDA+.

The hottest thing going currently however is an Athlon Barton core 2500+ paired with any nForce2 based board.

But if you're stuck on Intel, an Abit IS7 (I think that's the model) is the way to go.

Actually, I'd love to see the "ISP" that the PRoC has.

While I'm sure the DoD has some serious computing power, I doubt the average user would be able to get a handle on the hardware.
