I've got an Asus A8N-VM CSM (Geforce 6150) with an Athlon XP 3800+ X2. No problems except that i have to disable IDE DMA and Multi-processor support at each start to have a stable system.

I've got an AMD X2 3800+, with Asus A8R-MVP with an Ati Xpress 200 based chipset. R5 really doesn't like it. I think it's the IDE support, constant bus errors and timeouts? Zeta 1.20 doesn't seem to like it much either. Need to boot with CPU Features disabled, and remove some memory (1GB doesn't work, 512 does). Plus it constantly crashes, and fails to boot. It seems torandomly reboot, at the bootloader handover stage. All seems due to timing of when to press space bar toenter the bootloader. So really there's no problem with the dual core at all, it's all in motherboard chipset support.

Money is not a particularly big problem, so long as I can get hold of the parts required in the UK.It seems like the choice is between paying an awfullot for something like a dual-P3 system (which would at least guarantee hardware compatibility, but would do me no favours in terms of forward compatibility - I'm going to want to take advantage of technologies Haiku supports better than R5 did) and paying anawful lot for a dual- core or dual-dual-core system.
