I currently have a 1.2 amd system, and plan to upgrade to a dual 2000 MP machine.. it’ll come up to a good $1500 (reason being.. I’ll be quiting my job to focus more on school. So I need a stronger machine to last me for another good 2-3 years) HOWEVER, with all the latest news about the new chipsets.. Im wondering should I wait? Anyone know when the new chipsets are gonna come out? And by how much does it blow away the old ones? I was pretty pissed when I bought the first gen. of geforce 2 only to find out 3-4 months later they release geforce 3. I dont want to make the same mistake again.
