    First, if you could buy a 4 way Athlon MP it would not be as fast as a 4 way amd64 based system becauge the Athlon MPs do not have nearly as good a frontside bus as the amd64. Just get the amd64 system and run it in 32 bit mode. It will still be faster, for most things, than any other x86 system on the planet.
