how compatible are AMD processors?
I had an old PC die the other day, and I'm trying to decide whether I should even replace it. I was looking around at prices and noticed the AMD stuff is much cheaper, and also that they're coming out with new stuff in July. So I'm wondering are there compatibility issues? They look pretty impressive for the cost. Regardless, I'll probably wait until after the new AMD stuff has been out for a bit, just in case Intel lowers prices in response.
Just curious as to AMD users' experiences. I'm not a gamer, fwiw. But I do run decent numbers of VMs at times, and I want something that will last -- this PC that died I built in 2008 and still worked pretty well for browsing the Internet.
