XeoMage - February 3 9:50am
I just built my new box, with an AMD, and it is running great. Obviously when talking about quality you're talking about trends, but this system build was one of the least painful I've been through from a hardware perspective. It powered up on the first boot and the only glitch was how I connected the front USB ports.
Also, that debate went on way too long during the episode. ^_^
