Lines of dots and spreckles here and there. Unusable in this way. Via VGA it is fine. I have upgraded the HDMI cable, switched off...

    Which is the better option?

    I'm building a non overclocked rig for a friend and am having the standard AMD versus Intel dilema. I would choose FX-55 but need to order within 48 hours and they are not easy to come by near me at this time. The rig will be an all purpose machine used with gaming (amd?) and ripping of DVD/CD...
