Won't sounds like somebody who have something against AMD,i was huge till they changed their mind and made their processors weak for overclock.Andy think about that how much money you paid that zalman 9900 to get normal temperature on 3,7ghz.When you write all that paper how much cost you processor and cooler cause stock one is pure garbage you getting price of some Quad core Intel who runs much faster and more calm.Not rapidly increase temperature when you trying from 3ghz to 4ghz or sth.
Its not point blame any squad cause they trying make as fastest as possible processors which will let us playing any possible game with full details.To be honest if he thinking about future my advice is i3.You know why?
Well when i was bored of Windows XP i jumped on Win 7 which is great system but as always there are some problems so Microsoft release XP mode,everything would be fine if each processor can run it.But there are just few of 'old' Intel processors able to run it.Am not sure that any of AMD's can proper run Virtual PC or something.Which make AMD total worthless
So if he think about overclock and some not home users shit my advice is i3 and 2gb ram you can buy more in future
