So I was checking the specs on the QX6700 and I stumbled across this funny arse user review, it's the top one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16819115011

BEST SO FAR

Reviewed By: BIGPHIL032003 on 12/19/2006 Tech Level: average - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month

Pros: MY GOSH WHAT AN IMPROVEMENT OVER MY HYPER THREAD 2.8..I GOT THIS STRICLY FOR GAMING (BF2). I HAVE BEEN FIRST IN THE SERVER EVERY TIME..I DOWNLOADED 3 MAPS AND A PATCH (9 GIGS) IN UNDER 15MINS.

Cons: THIS THING NEEDS TO COME WITH A GIRLFRIEND ....

Other Thoughts: PAIR IT WITH SOME KICKBUTT RAM, AND YOULL BE KILLIN EVERYONE IN NO TIME

So he bought a quad core strictly to play a single threaded game... And then, it magically helped his download speed! Nevermind getting a faster internet connection, just get a new processor because boyeee does it ever crank up those download speeds, woooohooo!

I bet his idea of some "kickbutt" ram would be: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820161655

n00btacular!
 
lmao newegg reviews are so funny sometimes you could spend hrs just going thru them and wondering how these people ever got online. Much less built a pc.
 
roflmao some of those reviews are hilarious. Me and Mikeenike spent like 30 minutes reading reviews on an AMD pencil holder on there, funniest things iv ever read in my life. Ill see if i can dig it up.
 
Using a software modem ??... nah I`m struggling to defend them there.

This reminds me of some other online shops.

There needs to be some law-rulings brought out concerning some reviews that appear on online web-seller-sites.

Honestly, I think they have a member of staff write atleast the first ones, in some cases.

I`m not gonna name any names, but I`d rather see an online shop have no reviews, than ones obviously written by some1 who has no clue, even about the product.
 
it pains me to see a QX6700 go to someone like that - ie. someone whos wallet weighs more than their brain
 
theirs one on newegg were a guy says c2d are rip offs because you can get a 3.4 dual core that is 6.8ghz and the c2d are only 2ghz.

This is similar to when you see some old man driving a ferrari or something like that at 60mph on the motorway, why !!!!
 
LOL, I liked Ham's quip...

Me, I can't see spending X amount of dollars on a quad-core right now, I think it'll be a good year before they really make use of one, 'specially in games.

And I believe that kid, wholeheartedly... ;P
