    Intel vs AMD?

    wait for AMD Bulldozer to come out. (again?) It will lead to 1) cheaper am3 phenom II chips if u want to pay less 2) hopefully lead to cheaper intel i5/i7 3) BD might beat out intel for same price.

    Viewsonic ViewPad 10?

    if u want a REAL idea of what it can do go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/ and find the section for that tablet. See how it performs after rooting it. Example: the Viewsonic G-tablet sucks in stock form, with a root upgrading the android OS it becomes a Xoom killer

    cpu-z ram settings and OC

    Thanks, I understand that timing make a small difference, but what concerns me now is that my benchmark is way below average in all categories.

    cpu-z ram settings and OC

    I OC'd it to this. Left Voltage on Auto, and just upped the speed to one of 4 preset in my Bios (716Mhz) and manually lowered tRCD to 8. My question now is tRAS went UP to 30 from 20 and tRC went up to 33 from 27 and FSB: DRAM up to 3:10 vs 3:8, so am I better off with original settings or...

    cpu-z ram settings and OC

    The settings it's on right now are most likely from the ASrock feature Turbo Unlock..it automatically unlocked my CPU to 4 core and overclocks cpu as well as ram I think. Any way to fully utilize 8gb ram to really make things speed up?

    cpu-z ram settings and OC

    Here is a current screenshot of my ram settings. From what I understand JEDEC is what is COULD be. So my real question is when going into my bios, should I just lower the cas, ras, etc to the Jedec settings or is there more to it? Which profile should I run? Also, how can I optimize...

    Phenom vs. BD's performance boost? Gaming and future proofing

    in the end a few seconds faster for encoding a video, or 2 second faster Super-PI means how much to people? In real life use, its all negligible. I wonder how intel and AMD compare and benchmark their chips to each other, because really I think its all a game.

    Phenom vs. BD's performance boost? Gaming and future proofing

    how can anyone answer that if the processor is not released yet? and as stated by 2048, best to wait. Considering current sandy bridge i5 destroy anything from AMD, and BD should at least hang with SandyBridge, it's safe to say BD will destroy even an 1100t
