New processor came today.

  • Thread starter Mr.Magnetichead
  • Start date
I got a new processor 6 months ago. Runs at 2.66Ghz :p
 
And gets its ass handed to it by aforementioned 2.4 GHz proc.

Nice processor.

LOL, lmao.

pressure maybe you didnt notice but you make a lot of "pointless and retared posts"
 
The way I see it is I stop making post and act like you guys and just make pointless comments.

So from now on I'm just going to post shit like this in posts.
 
Congrats man! You are a lucky son of a bitch. I'm only going to upgrade to a 2500 Barton. Enjoy HL2 pal.

coolness..

..im not trying to start anything...but you could have gotten a faster pentium for less money....but if you have a amd based mobo then you will be very happy with it.
 
Its hardware, and its definatly general. I don't see how it doesn't fit the forum.
 
The 3200 runs like a 2800 so i hear. Seriously i would have gotten a P4 3.0C for $100 less and it would run 3x better.

the funny part is.....his 2.66(if im looking at the same one) beats the 3200+ in most benchmarks...... :)
 
Remeber, with AMD its not the ghz speed, the structure is different, they dont measure the same way as a Pentium. The 3200+ is like a 3.2 GHz

That is so untrue ...im tired of people saying that........

The 3.2 is ALOT ****ING FASTER......there...im better now


the 3200+ falls somewhere between a 2.6 and a 2.8 if you are comparing the two ...based purley on preformance....and not on there stupid ratings...
 
Umm, if you look at the benchmarks the 3.2 doesnt beat it by much, if you look on tomshardware, the 3000 beat the 3.0 ghz in many tests. The 2500 outperforms the p4 2.53 ghz, etc...
Sometime AMD has the upper hand, sometimes Intel
 
BTW, i was looking into buying a p4 2.4 or 2.5, looking at the reviews I saw this, and i quote "If your biulding a gaming hot-rod, I would recomend an AMD-Based system"
One of my clients works at Intel, she says the Barton core has a better structure. Everyone I know who is involved into computers choses AMD, the guy im building my dads website with is a computer conultant and repair-er, hes studied computers for a long time in classrooms, he chooses AMD. I'd rather listen to him, he never says "THE AMD IS ****ING FASTER THAN THE P4, IM BETTER!"

i was just looking at those benchmarks....either you are reading them wrong ..or i am......becuase i see the intel cpus in the lead on synthetic benchs and game benchs..............almost on every test..........

Im asking a serious question here. Are you an AMD fan?

Becuase if we are looking at the same thing it should be glaringly clear that that the 3.2 is ALOT faster than the 3200+ .........

seriosly...point me to any benchmark or game test ..that the 3200+ even comes close to the 3.2 (EXCEPT busniess winstone..amd always wins that synthetic bench)......


where does the 3000+ beat the 3.0? ...i just dont see it...the 3.0 is always ahead....the 2.8 is always ahead...and even the 2.6 is almost always faster...............


let me note....im not biased for amd or intel.......i just cant understand why people refuse to believe that newer p4s are just faster...regardless of amds shitty rating system......

JUST BECUASE IT SAYS EQUILVILENT TO A 3.2 CPU DOESNT MEAN IT IS......thats just clever marketing...and no offense but it seems to fool alot of people....

yes....judging my that post you are an amd fanboy...thankyou for preventing me from further trying to change your mind when you refuse to belive facts....and hard data

btw....if your going to quote me...then actaully quote what i said...and not make shit up....
 
What the hell? Im not an AMD fanboy, ive only bought one. Look in the first sentence of that
"BTW, i was looking into buying a p4 2.4 or 2.5"
And what you said in your previous post is crap, ive seen the 3000+ smoke the 2.8 in many tests, I read the 3.0 vs 3000+ (or something to that effect) article on toms hardware, and the 3000+ came out on top.

What really turned me away from Intel-based systems is that review site saying AMD is better for a gaming machine.

show me......give me links ...and tell me where......

im not trying to flame you for fear that you will ban me or something....

but i think you are full of it.


ive read the articles on toms...nowhere does it say that 3000+ smokes a 2.8 ...........and certainly nowhere does it say a 3000+ beats a 3.0....in all but mabey 2 tests the 3.0 wins by a large margin.
 
I got the Pentium 4 2.4ghz c processor. It's alot better because you can overclock it at insanely high speeds. And did I mention it has an 800FSB? :p Eat that AMD!

wow and im tired of ppl saying intel smokes AMD.....which is also untrue...some of the newer intel cpu's are better but you fanboy bitches make it sound like they ****ing own the amd by so much which isnt true.
 
They are both really good if you look at it, and crab, I cant ban you, Im a news poster, so I am just a moderator of that forum.

im not a fanboy of either manf. ....i just look at facts.....it pisses me off when people cant put aside brand loyalty to buy better product for less money.

edit: im done argueing for now...time to play DC
 
dude, a 3200+ beating falling between a 2.6c and a 2.8c? that's such utter bullshit

a 3200 just underperforms a 3.2 GHz, and that's my unbiased statement based on several reviews and experience

for the most part, AMDs hold true to their rating systems, sometimes even beating the P4s they're suppose to equate to, for example, the 2800+ actually DOES come out a little ahead of the p4 2.8c, it's just this doesn't hold true at the high end, the 3000 and the 3200 just underperform their competitors

That is SUCH BS. I read the 3.06 vs. 3000+ review, and the 3.06 outperforms it, by quite alot. If you read hardOCPs 3.06 vs the 3000, the 3.06 outperforms it in all multimedia apps. AMD seems to beat intel in business apps ONLY. I also read the 3.0 vs. the 3200+ and that also blows the 3200 away.

sure..but outperforms it so much that you notice a difference.........no.
 
This thread is getting rediculous, i am no fanboy. I refuse to argue with you AMD fanboys though.

/me leaves the room.
 
Face the facts AMD fanboi's Intel is faster, Thats not a hard thing to understand. Ignorant people are the worst.
 
no, you are ignorant

i lend my fanboyism to no company, manufacturer or developer



to make such a broad statement as Intel is better is ignorant, between the current top end processors, Intel holds the lead, but then again, that lead, not even that noticeable, costs you 700 dollars

now, in the performance range (p4 2.4c-2.8c, athlon xp 2500+ to 2800+) AMD holds the lead in both price and real world performance

and that's the bottom line, and i believe you will find that most major hardware affiliations (well, maybe excluding intel) will agree with that

Wouldnt this make you a "Intel fanboy"?

I wish i had mod access to this section, I would close this thread.

/me leaves the room
 
/me slowly creeps through the door into the room. *Whos that?* Sorry guys i forgot my hat.

Dont you think its funny how were arguing over something like this? I just really thought about it, its all just too funny what were fighting over.

/me slowly exits through the front door.
 
you should haev gotten p4 2.8C, cheaper than barton and WAAAAY faster.

heh...your smarter than me:p


@doobz .....seriously.......learn about a subject before you argue........


....ive said it so many times its making my head hurt.........

a 3200+....is no where near the PERFORMANCE(notice i didnt say mega-ultra-gigahurtz)of a 3.2c ......im basing this on fact...... ....a 2800+ is not even close to the performance of a 2.8c ......

your talking out your ass.....


im still waiting for someone to show me a review.... ANY review(from a semi-decent source) comparing amd and intels highend chips.....

that shows all these claims the AMD supporters have.....

dont give me a bunch of bull that amd cpus are more effeciant.....that may be but it doesnt mean they are faster.....
 
... and will you people stop saying "but the intel processors that are faster than athlons cost $700."
That is a lie... as I have said on three occasions you can get a 2.8GHz P4 800FSB (easily beat 3200+ in at least 90% of the tests I have seen... including all of the gaming tests) for under $275... that is more than $150 less than a 3200+.
Higher performance + cheaper = better.
 
^^^

yah magnetichead made a real bad decision.
 
crabcakes, now it's your turn to read MY posts

i am NOT talking about clock cycles, i am talking about real world performance, read my posts and you'll see that

and you seem to think that i hold the AMD top end chip above the Intel top end chip, which i do not, the 3.2c P4 does outclass the 3200+

at least read my posts before you criticize them
 
Mr. Magnetichead, give me links to facts that a 2.8c P4 beats a 3200+ and i'll believe it, but right now, that' rediculous, i mean, even intel fanboys have to give the AMD 3200+ a lead over the 2.8c, and ever gaming and synthetic benchmark i've seen has said the opposite, that the 3200+ outclasses the 2.8c P4

...alright that should be enough......
 
now, thats what I call Proof, the facts have been shown people the New Intel Processors are faster tha AMD's new processors.... and I'm an AMD man. but I'll be trying an Intel system soon. AMD has gone downhill with their newest processors...
