Just an observation. Out IT department talks about the AMD solutions a lot but when they come down to budgeting and buying, they go with Intel. They feel it is more proven and less prone to "putting their necks on the line". The CAD vendors we buy from use mainly Intel solutions that they recommmend or certify. I personally would like to try the AMD PCs but it is not totally my call here. Good luck.
