    if ur an amd fanboy or just maybe prefer teh x2 chips over intel anything, well ur in luck! amd has finally released mass quantities of the amd am2 x2 5200+ and they are CHEAP! looking for benchmarks now, but not able to find any. the amd 5000 was just shy in benches vs the intel e6600 and it sported 1/2 the lvl2 cache that this one does. just letting u guys know if ur looking 4 amd 4 xmas!

    AMD 5200+ $284

    $13 more for much cooler temps, less noise, and better performance. Heck I donno about you, but some people would think it's worth the money.

    Also there are barely any AMD fanboys left, if any.
