I'd be fine with all the Bulldozer-related drama if you didn't have games seemingly being coded more to favor Intel/NVIDIA.  (i.e. Blops on PC requiring NVIDIA cards for 3D.)Still running an ol' AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+ (5050e?) 2.6 GHz dual-core here...

Pretty sure my next build is going to Intel again (had all AMD up until my current PC) unless AMD pulls some crazy 180 and starts whipping rear end on Intel like they did back in the A64 days.
