Hi Evo.

This is a very good question and one that I thought I would have to address myself after my recent socket A motherboard blew. In finding out that they are now hard to replace and that there are no high end manufacturers like ASUS making any more socket A boards, I did think about going to a completely new system and thought about this AMD vs Pen descision. As It happens I went for and EPox socket A as I discovered that with AMD, they have stated that the current level of processors will mostly be redundent in 12 months time and of course all moby manufacturers will also move on. I did discover that Pentium have guaranteed the current dual core for 18 months at least so I dont know if this helps your descision.

As a foot note, are you the evo uk I used to know from Paltalk tech support?
