[QUOTE="zapout, post: 1346006, member: 28770"] hi guys, I'm helping my friend, building a new system. the problem is I'm confused between intel and amd. am3 socket will be replaced by am3+ in next 3-4 months. and i don't want to get him am3 because of this reason, and he can't wait. but i don't know about intel that good(to many socket:ashamed:) and this is the second problem. i don't know if my choice of socket(in the template below) is still in production or not. and if it's not phased out, buying that instead of an am3 setup is a good option or not. so guys please help me to make a choice here. should i get him a amd system or intel.
