I am still not sure what I want to get. I am gamer, yet very picky about my hardware. According to Tomshardware.com SLI is the way to go, but I still cannot decide on what proc I want. Tomshardware and MaximumPC suggest AMD so I am leaning towards AMD according to there published benchmarks. My only problem now lies in single core of dual core? The benchmarks for the single core AMD 64 3700+ (Clawhammer) are outdated on the nforce3 chipset but show a very good lead on the dual core AMD 64 X2 3800+. I could see myself benefiting from a dual core proc in the long run but frames rates are essential to me. Basically I would just like feedback on my choices and if need be someone to talk me into which way I should go.
