I'm looking into upgrading to Intel Core 2 Duo (or Quad) family - |
| 2 |
perhaps the E6600 Conroe. I'm trying to figure out which |
| 3 |
motherboard/chipset would suit my needs best. I'm planning to install |
| 4 |
Gentoo Linux on the system, and I need it to be, first and foremost, |
| 5 |
stable and reliable - mainly to be used for number crunching (e. g., |
| 6 |
Mathematica), simulations, etc... No gaming. I'm between getting an |
| 7 |
Intel board with the D975X chipset and a board with the NVidia 680i |
| 8 |
chipset. Which of these chipsets is more favored in the Linux |
| 9 |
community and which might do better with number crunching |
| 10 |
applications? |
