I planning on building a box to run Vista and noticed that Newegg sells AMD Athlon 64 X2 CPUs in both 65W & 90(i guess)W. What's the difference (other than one sucks less AC power); speed, reliability, durability? and what are the implications for motherboard choice?
Regarding motherboards, I'm overwhelmed by the selection. I'm not a gamer and don't need the advanced SLI or crosswire type dual GPUs. I plan on using this as a "business" system. Having 1394 might be helpful, but isn't necessary.
Does anyone have a mobo/CPU combo to recommend?
thanks!
