Actually, I have a single-core AMD64 chip that I still have all of my personal stuff on. Since I rearranged my apt, I haven't gotten that one hooked back up yet.
So I'm using one of two of my E2140 dual-cores for my main rig right now.
Even though I've got one Q6600 built (and OCed to 3.6, yay), and have another Q6600, DFI X48 mobo, and another pair of Q9400/Gigabyte X48 mobos.
I don't really game much anymore, so the quad-core is just sitting there. I still have an X1950Pro in this machine too, although I upgraded my other dual-core E2140 to a 4850. I've got three more 4850s still brand-new in the box (VisionTek) that I bought when they first came out (got the 25% off deal at BestBuy on a pair of them, twice).
Anyone else in a similar situation? They own "monster rigs", but still prefer to use something a little simpler day-to-day?
