Any advice on whether I should go for AMD M2 or 939? Need to upgrade my current rig but give myself a little bit of room for future expansion beyond my next build.
 
Strikes me that now is not the time to upgrade. With Vista, quad core cpus and DX10 graphics cards all just around the corner, some good bargains could be had in the New Year for what is currently the cutting edge of technology. But then again, you gotta bite the bullet at some time otherwise with the way technology develops you will never make a decision!

nope, 6 to 8 months is the time to upgrade, when the second batch of DX10 cards are out, when vista`s initial bugs will have been found and fixed, and when AMD have their new range of CPU`s out hopefully pushing CPU prices a little lower on both sides.

Have to agree m8. I would not dream of buying Vista as soon as it comes out. Despite extensive Beta testing it's bound to be full of 'Gates' Gremlins'. Not the right thread but is XP -> Vista upgrade or Full Version Vista install the better way to go when migrating OSs. I've done Win 98 -> Me and full OEM XP installs before now and see no real benefit either way?
