AMD is a quality chip. I have an 800 Duron oc'd to 1000 Mhz and have been running folding@home 24/7 since Feb. and have had no problems. I benchmark a lot higher than a lot of the pentium guys at our local lan parties.
My oc signature:
EPoX 8KHA
800Mhz AMD Duron @ 1000Mhz 7.5x133
512 Mb DDR ram PC2100
Radeon 64Mb DDR vivo
Tt Dragon Orb 3 @ 7000 rpm 50C Tops

On a side note, Distributed.net is what killed my computer recently, it had both of my 1 gig pentium chips running at %100 steady, and overdrove my puny power supply, wasted the mobo. its ok though, got another one coming. I miss that computer
Dual PIII 1Ghz cpus and some nice peripherals that I was able to save

Dude folding keeps your cpu at 100% all the time also. I've been running mine 24/7 since last Feb. with no problems. You have to keep an eye on your temperatures. I've got a 7000 rpm cpu fan that sounds like someone left the vacuum cleaner on but it stays cool.

i like AMD. Intel doesnt have **** on amd for Gaming. Maybe recently with the brand new chips, but the price just doesnt Justify. wtf would you spend more than 2x for a processor that is slower than the same clock speed?? Gaming wise.
im running a Duron 800@1000. Asus A7V mobo, Asus V7700 GF2...Gaming rig that still rips ***.
