The ladies been getting you down again mikey?;) :p

I'm also toying with the idea of getting an A64 system. Actually, I'm not really toying, I'm planning on it, but good boards are rare in Canada right now and prices are a little higher than I want to pay... Guess I'll wait a bit and see what boards are good.

Anyone notice there are plenty of A64/FX reviews but very few mobo reviews?

Hey Chucky, been feeling down, I've already put aside $5k for a AMD64/FX setup BUT...... I can't seem to get over the blues.:( Trying to give myself something to do to take my mind off things..... :(

Please update my score when you get a chance

:eek: Curses! Foiled again!

Nice score Mark. ;) How agressive were you able to get with the 4000Pro timings? I've read a few reviews, and I think that is my solution for high speed RAM, but it'd be nice to hear some real-world experience with this RAM.

Hope you find one soon and get to feeling better, it might even be possible for you to take over the number one spot again with one of them.:) Edit to add lets get rid of all those sad faces and get the smiles going again.;)

I suffered a personal loss recently and it's hard to get pumped up about anything.:( The $$ is there but not the enthusiasm/spirit....:)

Edit to add : Sorry to be such a wet blanket...
