Well, they are the fastest cards, and significantly cheaper than their 32-bit Intel counterparts. And with the rumors I've seen of the Prescotts benching slower than the Northwoods, it doesn't look like things are going to change. For a 3400+, it'll cost you about 400, while a P4EE is more than double that price, and the 3400+ is 10 to 50 percent faster depending on the benchmark.

The only carb that matters is under the hood.
There's an option for most vehicles that increases brake horsepower, increases mileage, increases driver control, lasts longer than the alternative, and even reduces the price of the vehicle. Despite all this, most people in this country choose the alternative, an automatic transmission.
