I constantly get amazed at the amount of compute power
per dollar ratio.
It also excites me to think about the future and what
will come to pass.
Imagine...
16 core cpu's for 100 dollars :)

Sure, and AMD could do another price cut (though this seems likely to be the
pre-Conroe cut...).
Conroe will debut with very, very reasonable pricing. The 1.86 will be just
over $200, and the E6600, already looking to beat the $1000 FX-62, will be
only $316.
And, the dual core P-D 805 is onl

Yeah, wake me up when they slash the X2 prices by 50%, else I'm getting a
Conroe system...

I need to replace my father's motherboard/cpu. He's 85 and does not play
games. Since I want to keep the costs down and use his DDR memory and APG
video I kind of like the ASUS P5P800SE. But I'm torn between the Intel D-805
or the D930. About $65 more for the 930. This is not a deal breaker but
If he does not play games etc then something like a celeron D or sempron is
faster then you ever really need for email / websurfing

First of all, isn't a D 805 a bit too much overkill
for your father?
If you want something that will give the least amount
of problems, then I would suggest going for a Celeron
D and pair it with an intel original motherboard.
They make a bulletproof combo. No fuss, no headaches.
Plus the Celer
I will consider that but can you tell me, does the d-805 run hotter than the
d-930? big or little difference?

Very little difference
Just finished watching 'Cars'. Whoever does the animation work for Pixar is a

Get the cheapest 9XX, there is no need for more mhz if this is not a game
system and the 900's run much cooler (plus draw less power) than the 800s.

I have a 3 year old Marantz SR-8200 that still has enough features and

I've been very happy with them.

What about getting the Asrock-939Dual (~$70) and a cheap AMD 64 processor
(AMD price cuts soon). Much less heat than Intel, you can use AGP, upgrade
to PCI-E later and keep your DDR memory. I'm running the board right now and
it has been solid. If you get it, just make sure you follow directions an
Realistically looking at what the end goal is you could get a sock754 with
3100+ or a celeron D and a board for 100 or less and have something that for
this purpose would have really low heat and solid performance :)
