   Looking to upgrade, Athlon 64s or MPs?
  As the title reads...But i heard the MPs wern''t good for hardcore gaming.I also heard that there is little point in getting a 64 unless u is be getting da new windows. I know this stands to reason but is it true.or would i be better off going for Intel. I have heard so many rummours about the lot i havent a clue which to look into.Can anyone please offer advice?regardsace 
  Last time I looked the AMD MP chips only ran at 266 FSB, not too good for gaming. The Athlon 64's have the memory controller on the cpu rather than the northbridge thus very fast memory (or is that just the FX?).JayEdit: Just had a look at AMD website, all Opteron and Athlon 64's have in-built memory controllers, so looks like the biggest hurdle with the AthlonXP MP's has gone away.
