Best all round intel or a64 based shuttle

[ElectroBlaster]

Im thinking about scaling down one of my intel rigs which as a 2.6 ht chip (s478)

Shall I plump for a s478 shuttle or would it be better to jump over to an amd 64 shuttle? I do a lot of video encoding and editing so whatever I get has to be good at coping with it

I've heard that the dual core pentium d 805 is great value for taks like video encoding.

I've heard that the dual core pentium d 805 is great value for taks like video encoding. Have a look at some 775 based ones.
