I plan to buy AMD64 if that helps...
@nolightatend--> Not dual layer but dual core. And it costs 3 times the cpu he asked.

Don't you think 64bit processor should process data twise faster than regular 32bit? I thought it was an idea.

thats not correct
fidel, you should specify the specs of the CPUs. A P4E 3.0Ghz is equal to a A64 3500/3700+ (socket 939) with HyperTransport.

no point...until Windows decides to release an operating system which is 64bit....windows is still 32bit, so even if the programs are 64 bit, whats the point.
aldo by the time windows release 64bit operating system (will they??) and most programs will be 64bit, your cirrent processor you have now will be a relic...there will be better stuff to use and buy....so ya...
i think at the moment Intel is the better choice for music production , since it uses floating point calculations, whereas far as i know the AMD doesnt have or haas shitty floating point....
just for an example i have 3 computers, a 2.8Ghz AMD, a 1.7Ghz intel and a 3Ghz intel which i use now....
but the 2.8Ghz AMD and the 1.7 Ghz INtel had almost identical performance with the same RAM
so i personally would rather go for Intel when it comes to music creation and production...
correct me if i am wrong anyone
