Edit: in fact, someone load AM3 into memory and tell me the size....I'm going to say somwhere in the range of 16-18MB is resident at any given time. then someone look at the size of the program on disk...I don't know...100MB? 4MB of memory is a lot for a CPU's cache, but remember, it's just that....4 MB....not a lot in actuality. bottom line, knock off the "fitting in cache" statements. enough of this crap.

Bleh don't penalize everyone for the few bad eggs that doubt the power, Everyone will always have bad or good opinions about something. I think some are entitled to it but others just act ignorant. Keep us posted man I can't speak for everyone but i'd like to know what it's capable of before buying it
