Got wind of a nasty video that shows what happens when an AMD chipset loses its heat sink and fan, vs. what happens to an Intel chipset... the AMD chipset smokes, and burns (!!) - destroying the motherboard.
Check it out!

You'll need the DivX codec to see it, if you don't have it already:

It was quite sobering. You all know I'm a big fan of competition, and that the most popular thing isn't the best thing, but this video puts me off AMD rather completely...
Those of you wanting to make Revit scream: put Intel and RDRAM and the new nVidia Geforce video card in your box!
