This entire forum needs a sticky that says "Read this before posting."
The message in that thread should read as follows:
If you have any processor question whatsoever, the answer is "Just get a Conroe," regardless of what the actual question dealing with processors was. Maybe then people would stop or at least cut back on posting that crap in everyone's threads.
I fully realize Conroe processors are tops right now and will be for awhile, but people have varying budgets and intentions of using their pc. The big one being the budget.
If someone asked the forum to spec out a build for them with a budget of say $800usd (tower only), I would be the first one to recommend a Conroe build, let alone if the budget was $1200usd+.
Now if someone is asking which of two AMD processors are "better," just answer the damn question. Some people are confused enough as it is when picking out a computer build, the last thing they need is people blurting out crap when they don't even really know the inquirer's situation.
