Hello.
Just when I had pretty much ironed out my CPU/mobo choice, I start seeing people recommending s754 chipsets (with those DFI Lanparty boards) instead of s949s.
Back when s939 came out, benchmarks clearly showed that they perfomred better than s754.
And then I told myself, "ok, thats good. s939 3500+ it is".
And now.... people have suddenly started recommending s754s again? Whats up? Did you guys miss out on some details earlier? Are reviewers finding "bad things" about s939s now that they are widely used? Also, I've seen people raving about the DFI Lanparty board coupled with s754. Does this board have anything to do with people recommending s754 chips again? If so, then that board must be something special.... whats s special about it?
Also, maybe DFI is coming out with a s939 version of their board soon? I've waited for 3 years to upgrade from my 1ghz tbird. I can wait a lil longer.
Please, guide me.
