Both Intel and AMD have made some great chips and some crap ones, so it really depends on the exact cpu. At the moment generally speaking Intel have faster chips and AMD have a better upgrade path, will this change... sure it will. It will be all different in a year so being an AMD fanboy or an Intel fanboy is a bit pointless and the same goes for GFX cards.

Yea, though the 2nd gen chips from intel are much better than any chip available with AMD right now.

as for GPU's, i try to get nVidia if intel is the CPU, or ATI if AMD is the CPU... Both (mainly ATI) are designed to run better with the relevant cpu

They'd run with most chipsets anyway tbh.

ATI just run better with AMD, as they are just made that way.
however, asus have the nforce line of chipsets for amd cpu's so nvidia cards run with amd, and in SLI

I thought the black edition was 965?

I originally thought mine was the black edition, but then i assumed i was mistaken.. so if there is a 955 black edition.. then i guess i have it xD

Yeah, i just checked on the invoice for the computer and its definately states '955 black edition', unless they've made a mistake, which is possible.

Cool, my invoice tells the truth then

Has anyone in the clan got a GTX 590? I heard they had major problems with over-heating, or maybe it was just the first batch that were put out.

My friend has a 590 gtx and he says it doesnt get that hot but he has like air conditioner so his room doesnt get hot so i doubt that his computer would.
