First of all sorry for the lack of posts from my point in the last days. Luckily there was not much to report anyway. Actually I was quite busy setting up my new rig and I must say I'm actually quite happy with it so far. You may now wonder why this post is called switching camps, eh? Well I went with Intel the last years and this is my first AMD system. Furthermore I added an ATI board to the rig. If you're interested in specs and a preliminary 3DMark 2001 result, hit read more.
