Already done this;but here goes again.

FX:uses the slower and more stable ecc ram,also more expensive;it uses dual channel ram giving it double the bandwidth;its mobo selection is more limited and costly;its designed to be a gaming workstation.

Ordinary 64: will be upgradable to 90micron cpus with the same mobo(maybe).

won't you ask for the price difference.
compare the 3400+ A64 and the FX-51 and see it for yourself that even thought the FX has dual-channel ram is it doesn't matter.
