How about some action Toledo style

Forget 3.8 ghz , Some fellows just broke the 4 ghz barrier on an Fx 55 . And btw , an intel would have to be heavily overclocked , like upto 5 ghz just to equal a mildly overclocked FX 55 . So NO intels do not walk all over AMD nor do they piss over them. The 7.2 ghz Intel record was done only while making into the Bios. The highest stable windooze boot was somewhere around 6.2 or 6.4 ghz IIRC .

Intel's forte of doing good in Media Applications isnt saving them anymore , the A64s are kicking their asses most of the time if both are at stock speeds and while comparing equivalent processors . The only place where P4s are still going fast is benchies like winzipping a big file , or converting a full CD of media or stuff like that. Proffessional Media Creators are still performing faster in AMDs among the higher processors.

So i dont know where all this junk about Intel beating AMD is coming from .

The new movie Sin City is made by ALL AMD64. AMD is impacting people and business' in a goood way. And reviews on that movie ujsually contain, something like, "Graphically Stunning."

Neat-o! I didn't know that

 

[NickS]

Yep!

Well I'mglad it aint just me that thought that 7.2GHz pentium on liquid nitrogen was taking the piss!! The thing can't even make it to boot inwondows!!

We can let the digital audio/video freaks keep their Intels

Yep and us gamers (proper use for a PC....) keep our AMD's w00tage to AMD!! :worship: :yumyum:

I sure would like to know what the cheapest Diego to hit the shelfs first is going to be.... I have a feeling there going to be outrageously expensive.

Yeah me too....thats why its a next year job for me...then I can get the next gen graphics too....whohoo!! :yumyum:

I'm not sure if I'll even transition to dual core. It's not going to make any real world difference for us gamers. I'll stick with the uber-powerful single cores

Yeah that's what I'm saying...may have to save and get an FX chip....now that would be something! :worship: :yumyum:

I just wait for the benchies on XS to come up then base what I'm going to buy off of those

Diegos are hitting the shelf May first week , you can preorder them at monarch. The Code for the processor will have BNBOX for its last five letters. Those are San Diego cores with 1 mb L2 cache.

Intel will push the nails out somehow

yes usin a pentium they will heat up all the nails then let em cool and due to them expanding SOOOOO much when they contract the holes they left behind will be 3 times bigger than the nails and so the nails will be useless and they will just kik off the lid;

honestly i am a fan of intels products just not the heat they give out!

that said pentiums can Fold like fuck

 

[FragTek]

Yeah if I were going to build a dedicated folding machine it'd be a P4.
