i am working on an unexpected refresh of my myth backend/frontend and
i have been staring at Newegg for several hour without enlightenment.
The question is, do I go for more cores (6) with a lower clock or
fewer cores at a higher clock?  The AMD six-core is here
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103851  there
are several AMD and Intel quad-cores with higher clocks.  This system
will be used exclusively for MythTV, so i am really focused on the
impact of clocks v. cores on MythTV.  Thanks.

George
