Re: [LAU] CPU and mobo

That's why I personally went with AMD. No HT, no onboard/onchip Video.
And some other advantages, abeit the computing power per cycle and/or
Watt is likely to be higher on probably any desktop intel.

But my link was just to let people who forgot about it check out what is
available and choose the best compromise for them. Unfortunately AMD
does no offer such a page, maybe for a reason, or I haven't found it so
far. But still you might get no HT/VGA for a lower price there, with
other compromises to make, for sure.
