haha i've never had the need to use prntscrn before... don't make fun. lol
You would be better off just cropping the results, and not the whole screen.fade2green514 said:i compressed it with adobe photoshop CS2 at 3 quality.. it was like twice as big as its allowed 2 be.
im gonna try reducing screen res... im at 1280X1024

check it out...
core duo is just as good as athlon 64's in most apps... not better (as i had expected).
i guess for a laptop its good, but i expected it to outperform athlon 64 x2... and it really didn't.
now i would REALLY like to see the specs of the system that intel tested the fx-60 O/Ced vs. the intel conroe....
i detect an INTEL fanboy!Clutch said:fade2green514, why are you comparing a processor which has a 2GHz HTT, and one which has a 667MHz traditional bus? Don't worry though, I won't blame it on stupidity, I'll just blame it on not knowing the facts before making an assumption, and sharing it with the world.
What it seems to look like is that the Core Duo is ahead of the Athlon 64 X2, when it comes to mathematical calculations, but just can't keep up with it in most things due to the bus speeds (as I stated above).
And another thing... how the hell did you not know how to use Print Screen? Come on... I've been using it since I was in first or second grade. Now, that is one thing I can blame on stupidity.
In response to those benchies which you posted, if you want to have a fair competition with [-0MEGA-], then downclock back down to 2.0GHz.
http://vic.expreview.com/read.php?1 - You may also want to see those Intel Conroe benchmarks, to see how it completely blows any of AMD's current products out of the water.
First of all, the 2000MHz HTT as of now can only take advantage of PC3200. Meanwhile, the Core Duo can only take advantage of PC2-5300 (which would be equilivent to PC2700 speeds as of now as the technology is rather still in it's infancy). So in fact, it would make a difference when it comes to memory bandwidth.fade2green514 said:umm #1 theres no difference between 667mhz and 2000mhz when it comes to fsb, because the memory isn't that fast anyways.
also, its 1ghz in two different lanes... not 2ghz.
dude, just because i never had the need for prntscrn before doesn't mean u have to go calling me stupid for it, mister bronze member.
i agree, the core duo is better than athlon 64's... but i don't think a conroe is THAT much better, when its clocked 140mhz below the FX-60 that they used. they need to benchmark it with more similar hardware.
lol they're gonna kick you out of this forum if you keep acting like that.
hmm... 2ghz (even though its 1ghz*2) can handle 400mhz (even though its 1ghz*2)... it would depend on timings. its funny, because i upped my ram to ddr424, and HEY! it improved memory bandwidth!Clutch said:First of all, the 2000MHz HTT as of now can only take advantage of PC3200.

Second off, and lastly... since when does post count indicate techinical competence?
Hmm, how could I possibly be an Intel fanboy, when I have only used AMD processors for my last 4 or 5 computers?fade2green514 said:i detect an INTEL fanboy!
haha
btw, april fools threads are for idiots.
unlocking a 7800gs... not gonna happen.
Okay, if 2GHz can supposedly handle more than PC3200, then show me sources which specifically state that Athlon 64's can use higher bandwidth memory (such as PC3500, or PC4000).fade2green514 said:hmm... 2ghz can handle 400mhz (even though its 1ghz*2), and ddr533 is only as fast as ddr333... wow u r smart.
hes talking about hypertransport.[-0MEGA-] said:1Ghz*2? Are you stupid? Each core runs at 2Ghz, not 1Ghz.
