Re: best cpu

Yea, I've built my own systems before, and frequent Tom's HardOCP Anandtech and the like.... I just wanst sure if any of the programs would use any of the benefits of the 64bit chip

with luck, I'll get a grant specifically for this and will be building a system something like this:

3.0 Intel 800fsb (or amd equiv)
2 gigs ram
Ati 9800XT w/ 256mb ram
2x 80gb HD's in raid setup

priced it for around $1500
