i went here and it say it use 125 watts of power here while the intel q6600 uses 95 watts ok if i build me a amd quad core computer i was wondering will i receive as big a jump performance from this system i got cuz i got a crappy celeron now like how much faster would a amd quad core be then mine will it be much faster then my single core celeron or would ir perform like having 3 celerons or 4 maybe on this TD site it say that it gets 4 pipelines coming out of it so thats why i think i should get this for gaming instead of a core 2 quad anybody tried to overclock this new b3 series of quad cores if so let me know how well it overclocks can i get 3ghz or will i struggle to get much outta this will the price drop pretty soon since intel is gonna drop in price in a few days from now?

Intel all the way,Im not a fanboy i would purchase an AMD again if they ever got their act together but i heard the Phenom had problems at launch which isnt a good thing.
seems to me they didnt do enough tests on the damn thing before releasing it ![]() Intels seem to run very cool these days ![]()

thanks i think imma stick with intel then i never built a amd computer b4 i always wanted to but i'll wait til they top intel i guess was originally planning to build a intel but when i hard that amd's was a true quad core got a pipeline for each core and that intel only had 2 pipelines coming out it made me wonder which would be best for games so i think i made my decision now im just gonna wait for intels price to drop cuz i sure hate buying things and then the price drops a week later
