I'm in the market for an AMD chip, and am hearing a bit of conflicting information about the DC procs. PC Gamer did an article about the X2 3800, saying it was a very good gamer, and "outright crushed" the Intel chips they were using for comparison when used for 3D gaming. When reading some buyer reviews for the 3800, some people were very bluntly saying that it's not really a gaming proc. I'm hearing how good it is at multi-tasking and the like, but that gaming can sometimes be hurt with dual cores. I'm confused. As you can see, I have a two year old P4, and, because of frequent gaming, would like to switch to AMD. I guess my other question would be this: Will this 3800 AMD handle other tasks besides gaming as well or better than the Intel I have? (let's try not to have too many Intel/AMD fireworks here.
