if i were to build a new system right now, it would be with a 2800+ A64. its the new best bang for the buck processor out there. not only that, but a good VIA KT800 or nforce3 motherboard isnt that much more expensive than an AXP mobo. the $20 you save on a 2800+ A64 will be put towards the mobo. the cost pretty much evens it out. go 64, the current 32-bit CPUs are a bottleneck to the new wave of video cards.
