Hi

Thanks to both of you for the nice reply.

I usually like AMD much more in regard to desktop systems - their
architecture seems a lot 'leaner' to me and I've got much better
experiences with them.

My problems:

- I don't know about the FS-specific performance of INTEL compared to
AMD. That means how do the 32 (and 64) Bit CPUs of both vendors compete
in regard to FS 2004 performance.

- I don't know about the performance differences of the actual ATI
chipsets compared with the NVidias.

Sorry for not making that clear in my first post

Best regards,
Peter
