    The AMD platform is waaaaayyyyy expensive than the Intel platform. Remember you have to have nForce680a chipset which is hell of a lot expensive than an Intel P965 chipset, and the power consumption is soooo high that you need to spend quite a fortune on the power supply too. Don't forget the huge electricity bill.

    It is expensive and I don't know why AMD released this, instead of allocating all the resources on their upcoming quad-core CPUs and 65nm.
