Go up one level in this thread

 The two best CPUs for chess would be the AMD 64 and Intel Pentium M (a.k.a.
Centrino). The P4 doen't even qualify for the race.
 But a Pentium M desktop system is hideously expensive both the CPU and the
mobo.
 As for stability and reliability I would say that AMD has the edge as long as
you get a first or second tier mobo, cooling and PSU.
