Link to details about that one? And what MB supports it? I can't find any MB that support Quad....I must be blind>..
 
Since the 1503 bios (I would get 1603 though as 1503 was bad) the M2N32 SLI Deluxe is supposed to support Phenom 9500 and the Phenom 9600.

This is what I am looking at:

I just can't decide, whether to go newer tech dual-core or older tech quad core. Mind you, I am mostly a gamer, and becuase of that I am leaning toward the E8400.

Dude, I'm in the same boat as you. I can't decide between the two. I mostly game, surf the internet, use internet programs, encode video. I don't use my computer for work or anything, so which should I chose? Anyone?

Well, I made my decision, I went for the E8400. 2 reasons, 1-It is the newer tech for the money, 2-It is the faster CPU for what I do mainly and that is play games. Besdies, now I will have the mobo to upgrade to a quad later if needed!
 
Sweet, I am getting the

P5N32-E SLI & is there only 2.4Ghz versions of quad core at the moment?

Sweeet!
 
think so - although they can be over clocked to 3ghz if you get the right heatsink and fan - i went and got an artic 7 big bloody thing it is, does the job though, better and quiter than the stock fan and heatsink, and even that was a beast :)

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?
