interesting how it isn't capitalized And how come you get to be god? Ain't ian?
Lets try to stay a bit on topic :P hehe but to answer the question, merging does do the poll entries too
 
Amd 64 Rocks!
Well, this looks familiar. Have you posted in this thread before? :P (look around page 28, I think it also happened around 21 and again several thousand times in other threads)

I believe that that was Robina:rolleyes:

Yeah, but it's the same story from someone else now. Liking the Athlon 64 (or Pentium 4 or whatever) is fine, but at least give some reasoning so you don't come off as a fanboy (even if you are :P)

Info??? What is that??? LOL! :P
 
I LOVE AMD WITH A PASSION!!!

Their processors are faster and cheaper. The FX-55 is the perfect example. It was 900$ and intel was 1000$ (the last time I checked) The amd could beat the intel in half the benchmarks and tie the intel in the others! Not only is the fx-55 cheaper it is also faster.
Case closed.

Check the sig:

Yes the FX55 is a nice chip but what about the Palomino? That's an AMD chip too and it sux0red.

If the processor sucks don't buy it and buy a better one. :D (it will be my new moto) lol

Again not all of us are lucky enough to have our parents buy stuff for us all the time. (you do also realize by your logic one can conclude AMD sucks and thus you've contradicted yourself...)
 
people only choose AMD as the price
Not really.... there is the gaming aspect.... and the clock efficiency .... and AMD64 instructions ... (which arent supported by all P4s)
 
i would agree, AMD isn't chosen just because it's cheaper. lots of people i help out ask me what to get, and since they are almost always on a budget i tell them AMD. but then they see a 3GHz Celeron and get that, because of the 3GHz.

AMD just hapens to be somewhat cheaper and performs just as well/better than many Intel chips, coincidence? I'd still go with them if they were Intel priced, they are great.

I don't know where you get the idea that my parents buy me everything, I am running a 3000+ (754 pins) and I don't have sli(my sig is just because it rocks) or 4gigs of ram... Tonnes of people have waaaaaaaaaay better systems and I don't play games much either.
I just like programming and the most expensive part of my computer is probbably just the software (studio Mx, cinema 4d... (all of which are education versions). The computer was more just to learn stuff on.

How did I say that amd sucks. If the processor sucks buy a better one. I didn't mean more expensive I just ment that if intels are a rip go amd and if amd sucks go intel.
 
You make it so hard... I'l rephrase it again... :)
If the processor sucks, get a better one in the same price range (and if there isn't a better one in the same price range then why did you call the first one crappy?)
 
I've always gone with Intel, mainly cause that is what is offered w/ the pc's I've chosen ... but the next pc I build I think I'll try AMD.
