I just upgraded to a AMD 1700+xp from a 1g T-bird, my encodings times a half or better than half of what they use to be, I use tmpenc which takes advantage of the xp's sse instruction set. I bought the system at a recent Show for $418 out the door, this included, Case w/350w ps, processor with Jetway MB (well rated by Maximum PC), 256mb ddr, 40g HD, and a sony 16x dvd/rom, I used the extra's it came with to put in my old case and gave it to my son as a gaming puter. Great Deal, have been very pleased.
