I just don't understand why a company wants to make their own form factor, Intel BTX and now AMD DTX, why doesn't a company create a newer archtecture to get rid of bottlenecks, no matter how fast your processor is, all the other buses and tech is so slow, I grow tired of waiting on harddrives even in raid 0 I get a bunch of unrars going and my processor is hardly touched because of so slow of throughput and read/write to harddrives. They need to get harddrive speed to closer match processor/memory even PCE-E bus speeds, get rid of PCI it is to slow to even use expansion cards for Sata. I have a dual core amd 3600+ and the only way I can max it out is do something like distrubuted calculations or video games. But let me have 4.5 gig unrar sets ;) and par rescues and I am waiting on harddrive and watching my poor processor do almost nothing.
