I agree with you, but the reason why I traded is because I think HT on a daily used PC is not the better choice. Overall the intel was very quick, but crapped at some things, gaming believe it or not was hindered a bit. YOu disable HT and you gain a few FPS's on most games I played. I think the AMD is just a better daily driver. I didnt have the money at the moment to do it, so I was able to find someone who wanted to trade. Couple of other things pissed me off about the platform, but not really significant to my decision.
