I'm building a new computer and I'm having trouble deciding on what to buy. I don't want to turn this into a fan boy flame war, but I know this is the internets...
Ordinarily I'm a solid AMD guy. The price/performance ratio has always been where I've been at. However I'm planning on blowing a good chunk of my tax refund money, so price is really not an issue. Right now at the egg the i5 750's and the Phenom x4's are pretty comparable in price ranges. The benchmarks also seem pretty comparable according to Tom's. For video I'm also fairly certain I'll be using 2 ATI 5770's.
So here's the deal
Dual boot system. Vista and Debian. Windows is exclusivly used for gaming and nothing else. Linux is my real workhorse. I do a lot of video/audio mastering and conversions. I also have encrypted harddrives. Its not unusal for me to use 4 to 6 desktops and 10 to 12 applications simultaneously. I occasionaly do some compiling and almost always run BOINC in the backround.
What would you pick and why?
