Hey guys. i'm building a work computer for my dad in march and I need help deciding which CPU to get him.
I've always been an AMD fan. But which socket is good to invest in for the future?
AM2 has been around for a bit and AM2+ is coming out but I can expect AM2 will phase out eventually within the next year or so...
Intel's LGA775 (is that correct?) I know is currently the hottest thing right now and rightfully so. Didn't hear anything but good things about it (a nice change after how awful P4s were).
So come march, which socket should I invest in? I have the feeling that for RIGHT NOW, Intel's LGA775 is the way to go but for future upgrade, I'm edging for AM2+.
What say you people?
