I'm in a corner and dont know which way to go,
On the one hand I understand the Intel E6400 is great for overclocking and is a good all round performer and matched with a P5N32 SLi 680i mobo would work well together (I have a 8800GTS intend to use SLi sooner rather than later on).
On the other hand my mate believes that the AMD 64x2 5200 is a better cpu matched with a m2-crosshair nforce 590 is a perferred matchup between the two.
So my question is what are everyones thought of these two???
I know the 680i had its share of problems through bios etc.. but i believe those are straightened out
thanks in advance
