i only have two hands
an opteron build is coming next month(so this build is temporary or interim) and soon to have a mac for dev. while im having second thoughts of keeping this PD820 build to use it as linux server. quite expensive and overkill build for that purpose(linux).
the mobo was in the buy and sell section for a while, so i thought build it to experience what the fuss is all about this mobo. all the fuss around is right. its a good mobo if not the best for the pentium D series.
question on if the prices will come down? pretty sure when conroe is out. but thats sometime 3rd quarter or 2006 and it depends if your needs can WAIT for that time. conroe might be available in PH market around last quarter of 06 or baka 2007 na. so again, it depends if you can WAIT.
