So, this 1.4 should be plenty fast.) Anyway, this one can be a starting point if/when I spring for it. But what about the Video and Sound? Are the FBSD problems going to ID the kind of chipsets on this board? Would you gents, Chris, Kent, Kris, recommend a second or second and third fan? The AMD's are known to run hot.
