    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 :p) 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

    Don't understand what's wrong... My QX6700 works perfectly fine and kicks any AMD's ass ATM...:cool:

    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?
