pimpcat5 · 03-29-2003, 08:44 PM

any comments on this thing? i just ordered one.. cheapest i could find was $530
supposedly this is the one with the new chipset with 512 instead of 256.. and it measured right along the lines of the p4 3 ghz processor...
word?

thats is a KICKASS processor, I read reviews, truly amazing, but price is fucking high though. I am still on a 1800+ untill my new 2700+ arrives, ehehe

and i saw they were asking $300 for a amd XP 2600

Wow, I wish I had money I could toss around on a system like that.

Word dude, AMD Athlon XP 3000+ means it is comparable to a P4 3000mhz.

But I wouldn't spend that kind of money on it. I'd rather buy a 2200+ or so and then upgrade after 6 months to a 3000+ (or higher), it might actually be cheaper.

The p4 3.06 seems alot better if you're using XP

Can the new Barton-core work with older motherboards?

I got my motherboard (Asus A7V333) a few months ago.

iroc409 · 03-30-2003, 12:26 AM

if it supports the 333mhz fsb.

iroc409 · 03-30-2003, 01:05 AM

you guys shouldn't waste your money on things like bartons and geforces. when the hammer comes out, the barton will be through. but, so will the p4. stay with the 2400+, and overclock it if necessary.

as far as geforce, the ati 9700 pushed them out, and the new r800 is going to DEMOLISH the competition. sucks to be nvidia

Libertine · 03-30-2003, 02:55 AM

Lag about 6 months behind the latest technology. That way, you save lots of money, and it really doesn't make much of a difference.

topal · 03-30-2003, 07:25 AM

i am using amd athlon 1ghz for 3 yaers.. still rocks.. go for AMD

Paraskass · 03-30-2003, 07:34 AM

Not a reliable source, if you take a look at benchmarks there's not too much difference in overall performance.

I absolutely agree - I've just recently upgraded my computer to a 2.4 Ghz Pentium IV with a Gig of DDR 333 Kingston Value RAM.

There is nothing that baby couldn't do, really. Going with the newest stuff is complete nonsense.

This statement is invalid just because by now - it's simply a matter of choice.

AMDs definitely have the better value/price ratio, the moboa are still a little cheaper, which means that you can build a fast system for way less than a comparable Intel system.

I personally like Intel better, they simply 'feel' more stable, and have a wider base of software support. Hyperthreading will most likely become the new way CPU perform in the future ... AMD is still leaking behind with a similar technology. BUT they're more expensive ... on the other hand the new 533 MHz FSB Northwoods are mad overclockers. With the right RAM (and good cooling as well) you can achieve mad results

Oh and I forgot - I don't think the newest AMDs are build using .13 micron technology, do they?
