Transition from Intel to AMD

Well, looks like Intel is not interested in making quality CPUs and switched to selling MHz to the public.

Hence, I am looking forward to transition from using Intel CPUs to AMD.

I was always using Intel CPUs. The last one is P4 2.8 800 Northwood. I am thinking to get S939 Opteron dual core 2GHz 2MB L2.

What MB and RAM would you recommend?
I have 4x512MB KingMax dimms 2.5-4-4-8. Will they do OK with Opteron X2 or Athlon 64 X2?

1. I do not overclock/benchmark at all.
2. I do not want to pay premium for faster memory, though I would pay extra for more reliable operation.
3. Reliability is most important thing for me.
4. Low noise is second most important thing.

Thanks in advance,
486

Yes, it's 400/3200.
I've been woried about weakness of AMD embedded memory controller to run 4 dual side sticks. But I also know that KingMax SuperRAM is very solid RAM, though slower than CL2 RAM.

I run compilers, debuggers, sql server, iis, some video editing software, a little of counter strike: source and UT 2004.
