Recently i have been seeing a number of articles about flaws/bugs in Intell CPU's, I didn't take too much notice at first (I'm a AMD guy ) but it seems to be creating quite a stir! So.... dodgey marketing practices AND shoddy CPUs, go Intel!!!![/Intel-bashing]
.......i hope this is something that we with intel core 2's won't have to worry about. But my extreme has been spot on so far
Must say, I am biased towards AMD, myself, so YAY Already Made my Decision Love the sig. As we all know, the Socket F Quad FX series of CPu's cost (if you got a pair of FX-70s) 20% less than a QX6700 and are about 30-40% less powerful and about 25% less energy efficient. Basically intel have the flag at the moment, when are AMD expected to release their next generation of CPu's that are actually going to be decent? I heard of AMD Phenom X2s and X4s from a friend, but when? I also read that in benchmarks reviewing the new 8800 graphic cards, I came across a few that said the reason these cards can't do any better is because of CPu bottleneck, even on a QX6800. Is this true that graphic cards are currently "ahead" of CPus at the moment?
