Hi Guys,
Never knew about this place until i seen it mentioned on a review site and thought i wonder what goes on there so i had a looksy and WOW very popular place with great info
Ive always dis-liked AMD and MBs to suit from the earlier days when i was working as a system builder, they would be unreliable, unstable, having to apply patches for this and that, RMAs were always frequent.
So many many years later still a system builder and ONLY using Intel Systems for reliability, stability and NON RMAs are just to good.
However im not here to bad mouth AMD at all, as its being years since ive even touched or looked at them and things do change over time.
I have being reading about the AMD's DC and Opteron CPUS and they seem very impressive BUT i still wonder about the above problems and thought why not come ask the experienced AMD users / builders.
The reason i ask is im tempted for the last time to build one and hoping that they have some what matured. Looked at using the following -
AMD 4200 or Opteron 165
Asus A8N32-SLI or A8NE
Whilst i dont really need SLI it just seems like a better board then the other but could be off the mark here.
So have they matured now and are the systems rock solid to be able to not worry about RMAing the CPU or MB?
I am certainly concerned about taking the plunge and looking for unbiased information from you guys.
Any feedback would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Sissy
