I'm looking into upgrading to Intel Core 2 Duo (or Quad) family -
perhaps the E6600 Conroe. I'm trying to figure out which
motherboard/chipset would suit my needs best. I'm planning to install
Gentoo Linux on the system, and I need it to be, first and foremost,
stable and reliable - mainly to be used for number crunching (e. g.,
Mathematica), simulations, etc... No gaming. I'm between getting an
Intel board with the D975X chipset and a board with the NVidia 680i
chipset. Which of these chipsets is more favored in the Linux
community and which might do better with number crunching
applications?
