Well I think I'm still going to wait for AMD to release Thier 246(2 Ghz) Chips.
If I'm spending that much on a Multi-Processors Opteron I want it to be the the
Top Dog where ever I play at.  Besides, I don't think windows Server 2003 (64
bit)will be out till about X-mas.  By that time, I'm sure most of the
Programmers that have a Program that ranks high on the SSDF list,will have a
revised 64 bit version out.  While on the Subject:how much ram is too much?  I
had a price quoted to Me from Monarch for a Dual Opteron,and the,Motherboard
would hold up to 12 Gigs of memory.I asked for only 4 gigs of ram.  I'm only
purchasing this system to play Chess Programs with .  In Your opinions how much
Ram am I going to need?  And how much would be overkill?  Let Me hear Your
opinions on this Multi-Processing Opteron system.  >>>>Mike
