    Which card. Only two left.

    If you look hard enough you might be able to find a example of 80% but almost every benchmark I have ever seen has been 50% or less performance increase(most of the time less).

    ATi X13000

    9600XT = 6600? I really dont think so. I take the 6600 with double the pixel pipelines with out even a thought over the 9600XT. The 6600 is a whole class above the 9600XT with ease. 6600 ~= x700 is the correct comparison

    AMD Setup

    I assume you are talking about FPS in video games when asking that question. Well in most games you more likely to be bottle neck from the video card so jumping from an x2 3800 to an x2 4400 properly an under 5fps increase. Even if you have a high end video card the gains usually small...

    AMD Setup

    I am a bit confuse how you measuring this 150%. If you talking about gaming I very very much doubt you see games jumping from 50fps to 75fps by upgrading to any of the Conroe base CPU over the FX-60. Hell most of the time the difference between upgrading to a fx-60 from Pentium D 930 wont...

    AMD Setup

    In other words the people that do absolutely no research before buying might benefit from new egg reviews? Well that person deserves what ever he gets if he relying on newegg reviews to catch any compatibility mistakes. Smart people already done the research and already know what they...

    AMD Setup

    I would say at least 50% of the time when someone gives a product a bad review at newegg it because they got no clue what they doing and it more likely human error then the product it self.
