    Not really. With S939 on the horizon, and DDR2 support probably not far off, current 64 bit parts excite me, but I don't feel compelled to buy them yet.

    all right i'm sorry then. i agree btw. why spend money on it now when you know you're gonna have to upgrade later. at least they don't pull an intel and not tell us anything.

    That's a rhetorical question, right? I think I ask that question every time I upgrade any computer system or even just single components.

    Is that why it takes so long for the extreme overclocking stats to update?
