AMD all the way. If you buy a current Intel CPU you cannot upgrade it without replacing the motherboard because they change sockets like you change underwear.

I only change my machine every 4 years or more, prolly a non issue lol, usually just video card upgrades these days.

I recently replaced an Athlon X2 64 with a Phenom 2 which was a full two generations ahead and it worked with a simple bios flash which turned my laggin HTPC into a fire breathing console eating beast. That was about 4 years and it saved me about $250 in mobo, ram.

Which CPU could I put in my MOBO:

Gigabyte GA-MA770-DS3,AMD 770, DDR2, ATX ,Socket-AM2+,
