I just did a little upgrade.

I got an AMD64 Dual Core 3800+ on a Gigabyte A8N-SLI (nForce4) board
and it too works fantastic....

except:  the kernel has a timer issue.  (apparenly fixed in 2.6.14+,
but that is beyond breezy).  Have you experienced any 'fast clock'
issues yet?

I've found in the forums a few details of the problem, but none of the
solutions worked for me.

My video card is an eVGA GeForce 6800GS (PCI-Express)
