Looks like I won't upgrade to AMD64 within the next few months
(assuming I could afford it).

I was looking at the new GeForce 6100/nForce 4xx MicroATX boards which
are quite cheap. But then I found out that SATA II NCQ is still under
development for Linux, and worse - NVIDIA did not release the specs
for its SATA chip! So, even if I get my Socket 939 Opteron - AMD has
dropped the prices - I'd still be crippled by slow hard drive I/O.
