hey everybody, just had a question about the best setup. im thinking of upgrading my P4 system to a dual-processor system and was wondering about the Xeon processors. has anyone had any experience with them on the PC side? if so, whats the best motherboard/processor configuration to use? or would it be better to go with AMD? if thats the case, what motherboard/processor config would be better? i willing to spend some money on it, but not to the point that ill go broke doing it. i was thinking of either of these 2 motherboards:
