Which CPU brand do you choose? Version 2

[mach8ter]

I love my Core 2 quad
Have been running intel for nearly 7 years now. Wouldnt use AMD.

Actually, AMD is best for the gaming usage but it cannot handle multitask apps properly which it mean AMD is best for single apps like gaming.This is because of its L2 cache is smaller Intel L2 cache. So, Intel is best use when you always do multitask apps... but, I still prefer AMD..

 

[colt1911]

In the past I'd always buy AMD but since my first C2D and now my quad it's Intel all the way until Amd can show me some better results.

Ive always used AMD but Im thinking of trying the Core 2 Duo's, they seem to be doing very well...

 

[Dystopia]

I do have an amd ahtlon64 x2 4000+ but if i could, id get intel(sodamned expensive!)

Not anymore. That was during the Athlon skt 939 vs Pentium battle. Intel has the performance crown currently...period.

Future looks bleak for AMD. AMD is pooling all their resources to ATI, good for the videocards, bad for the CPUs. Mabye AMD can recover by... the end of 2009? who knows.

P.S. i like amd better btw, but when you can get a $180 proccesor overclocked to almost 4ghz, its obvious which CPU you rather buy.

Will i must say i have only ever had 2 Intel CPU's, i have always gone for AMD, prob the spec/price ratio. But i would never turn down a good spec Intel.

 

[elron-jethro]

i voted for intel becasuse it think they just have the edge on gaming, im not an intel fanboy-closedminded idiot, i currently use my old socket A Athlon XP 2000+, its never failed me once and i got it second hand!! My next build hovever as you can see from my choice of motherboard, (i know its not awsome it just saves my money), will be an intel socket 775

intel power!!!!!

Welcome to 2008...AMD is good at being cheap, and that's about it.

Yes true diduknowthat.

 

[elron-jethro]

amd really do need to release something new, intel are planning to release a procossor that has 80 cores! (still in the testing and designing stage though) im very anxious to see amds next move, it better be a good one now though or it might kill them

80 cores - don't you mean 8!?

AMD still need to get quads out.... my next built will be an intel.

yea he ment 80 cores. The processor itself consists of 80 single cores linked together. It's soo big, it's bigger than a regular eating plate.

OMG!!! *faints*

 

[Sir Travis D]

It will probably have a lot of problems, cost a lot more than any computer, and only be for servers.

 

[diduknowthat]

The 80 core platter is old news..it's been around for a while.

 

[funkysnair]

thats a giant computer biscuit

 

[voyagerfan99]

thats a giant computer biscuit

LOL

I chose AMD for my last build because I had been hearing how good they are. I thought they were slightly more expensive because they were better.

My mistake.

My next build will most definitely be an Intel build.
