I think I would move to an AMD if I wasn't so damned scared.
If someone could send me an email or post something here to dispell my fears, I may strongly consider re-considering my latest upgrade build... no matter how I flip the situation (P4, dual P3s), AMD seems like the logical next step; and yet fear of the unknown and blind devotion to the familiar is keeping me stuck on old.
Your words of wisdom will be GREATLY appreciated...
I should note that the cooling I've seen for chips seems really dramatic... can one get by with a lowly quality heatsink and fan when overclocking these chips?
Can my current harddrive and other cards still work in the new system? I'm ignorant and have a learning curve ahead of me.
