Actually my current computer has an AMD Athlon CPU. Liked when AMD was the underdog and they had a better CPU that was priced better.
But now currently as it is today, the Core 2 Duo IS a better choice than anything AMD has to offer. A Core2duo doesn't cost $1000, that is the Xeon or Quad-core. There are Core2duo that cost about $200.
I think the Core 2 Duo is what offers the best bang for the buck.
I rather have a silent computer too, and the Core 2 Duo is built on 65nm technology and offers a lower TDP than what AMD can match who is still on 90nm technology.
I don't want a huge, loud and ugly computer. I want a MidiTower that is silent and sleek. Not a bigtower, not a SFF.
