Welllll.......... I wasn't going to say a thing to "omega boy ,
But it seems his mouth is waaaaaaaaaaaaay larger than it needs to be....
Flame Wars aren't what this site is here for little man....it's to help one another....
BTW pinipig523 , I think the "reason" O-boy hasn't posted specs on 'his' machine , is because his daddy peeled the sticker off the front of the $489 HP they got from WalMart!!
Which incidentally - a few days ago , his profile location stated "god's throne" THAT has been changed...(big ego , small life syndrome detected)
I'll try this in small . bite sized chunks ~~
OK.... sooo...
1) Addressing my post for somebody with a "normal" IQ wouldn't be a problem , as it's only THREE paragraphs long - but it does require a small amount of cerebral activity to make SENSE of it.... which obviously not every one of us here is required to house an IQ of over 45 points.
2)NOTHING was addressed about Intel having to revise a part 4 times to get a CPU that could actually COMPETE with AMD's counterpart.
3) AMD has learned that 'sending junk' and trying to sort it out later isn't in ANYBODY'S best interest.... Intel , well.... I can't say they have learned much. (no comment?)
4)FPU performance doesn't matter?? Right -- Right.... a PC is nothing more than a high performance calculator , and saying FPU performance doesn't matter ~ is a LOT like saying that it doesn't matter that an eight cylinder engine only running on 6 cylnders works just as good and there is NO problem.
5) Saying that O/C'ing the FSB doesn't matter is another good way to show what you know. I probably BUILT and REPAIRED more PCs last month than "some people" have ever 'played' with in their entire short 15 years on this earth.... hehehehe ....
Can someone tell me that utilities & APPs like : MemTest86 , SiSoft Sandra 2003 & 2004 , 3DMark2001 & 2003 , HD Tach261 , BelArc Advisor , Adaptec EZ SCSI , NerO DriveSpeed , Codecreatures Benchmark Pro , RadClocker , RadTools , TweakUI , WCPUID V3.10 , Windows Media Encoder 9 , Ulead Media Studio Pro , Matchware Mediator , Pinnacle Studio , Ulead DVD MovieFactory can ALL show me improvements in the benchmarks or rendering times when I up my Bus Clock , but I am still WRONG?? Because 'they' said so??
I hack NC code for a living (On an Intel CPU btw...) & do these boxes as a sideline/part time job. Essentially I use PCs for 10 to 12 hrs./day ~ but I'm a n00b... hehehe
6) UUHHhhhhhh ....
OOOps!!... I was looking @ the post[s] & I see the genius of the bunch got banned from the site already.....
WELL!!!!!!!!!
I guess there will be no reply to this!!
Woo Hoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
techimo r00Lzzzz!!!!!!!!
Robert

P.S. did I mention that only 45 of my 386 GB is open space???
"I do know a superior product when I use it , and I DO USE IT!!!!"
Video encoding makes my CPU go Kr00nCH!!!!!

AMD , the best H.P. for the money , hands down.

Great job of attacking people I must say SFW1960 but if you brag about your age then I dont se a reason to sink down to a persons level.

"but I'm a n00b... hehehe"

No one said you were a N00B unless that is if you feel like one.

I am a sick and tired of this crap, AMD is better Intel is better. How can you compare and apple with a orange and argue it.

THE TRUTH IS

AMD will win its fair share of benchmarks and the Intel will win its fair share of them, you cant compare the architecture because its so much different, AMD has its screw ups as well as Intel.

Personally I like the Pentium 4 over any of the XP series, I have my reasons and I dont need someone to tell me otherwise cause my opinion or any ones opinion is = to that of any other member.

this bickering is not getting anywhere


each chip has its place, each chip has its pros and cons.
