[QUOTE="knutinh, post: 54333, member: 14776"] Where I live, 300W of electricity costs the same no matter if I use it for heating or computing. Is your place any different? Your comparision of CPUs would be great in an ideal world. However, FFD-show gurus keep stating that that particular software works better with intel processors (no, I dont want to start a war on that. Search this forum if you disagree). And processors like intel mobile ones have only recently gotten ok mobo offerings. I am using an AMD 3000+ for my office computer because of its energy use, and it too has its negative sides. Heatpipes does it. In my case, why should I throw away my existing p4/northwood hardware when I had the know-how to build a HTPC that cant be heard in listening position? It is important not to get relifgious on these thing... -k [/QUOTE]
