well im building my sli system ..
my board is gonna be the asus one .. but which chip .. originally i was gonna pick a 3500+ winchester .. but now im thinking its not really worth the extra 40 dollars .. over the 3200+ .. or maybe even a 3000+ .. im coming from a 2.4c intel @ 3.5 .. so i cant even imagine .. going from 3.5ghz down to 1.8 for the 3000+ or 2ghz for the 3200 + ..

what do u guys think ..

Since you are *going* to pay over $200 on the motherboard, you might as well get the 3500+. The 3500+ will crush your P4 on every possible benchmark while running at a measly 2.2ghz. There are several sites that have such results posted for all to see. Anandtech being one.
 
hmmm ok .. then i will get the 3500+ .. so my system should be up and running by end of dec... ive been gaming alot .. that is mainly why i wanna switch over to amd .. since i know they are superior in gaming then the intels
