WOW covered your azz there, …. I can’t be wrong cause it’s only an opinion even though I never stated it’s an opinion. That’s great Slvr leaves you tons of wiggle room in future debates…. You can state something as fact (just by saying it is so) and then just say it was merely my opinion so I...

slvr_phoenix actually now that you have back tracked it into merely your opinion I get it just fine. You know your very first words in this thread was “its not illegal” how many time did you state it as not illegal before changing to maybe its not illegal. You should try writing things like (I...

Nice play on words, if you want to argue that its not illegal maybe you should sign up on that Divx forum cause no one here is arguing it <b>IS</b> illegal. You however are stating it is legal and you are only guessing about that, something you seem to do a lot of. It is now illegal for M$ to...

requires slower but more stable error correcting memory. This ram is a little slower and more expensive. Opteron cpu need 940 chipset 1 more pin for ram. If your not running a mission critical server forget about it. stick with a64 or fx on 939 platform. If u want amd that is. If I...

Once again no-one in this thread has said its Illegal, so stop bringing that up please. This is one more worm in intels can of abuse by a monopolist trying to keep the competition down. Maybe a judge will see it that way and maybe he won't but it will be the sum of all parts together (i believe)...

10,000 views that must be a record in the CPU forums. If I glanced at a spilt box of tooth picks on the floor, could I tell you how many are in the pile. Not a chance, But then again I don't have to buy my underware at Kmart.

cause it is still better over all, never mind cheaper, u will most likly need a new intel chipset motherboard to move to ddr3 and u can only hope your mb will support advances in ddr2. Intel changes specs platforms more than I change my ginch, what is your point? a penny saved is a penny...

I did not say it was illegal, hard to say what a judge would think though. I seem to remember a cross licencing agreement between amd intel and this seems to try and circumvent that agreement. Ok there is now a patch but are sites that test cpu performance like THG using that patch? Might not...

<<Now AMD is going to DDR2, why?>> Cause ddr2 3 - 4 is the future I'd guess. ddr2 has no advantage overall over ddr TO-DAY, However; it will at some point. these things just take time,,, that point might be today but it was definatley not the day intel told u it was better. or lead u to...

Wow!! no one here found this topic worthy of discusion? To me this is huge, I can't say it is true but would appear it is. I'm amazed nobody has posted on it. The ramifications of this r huge IMHO. I don't know if AMD will persue this but the way i am reading this they sure as hell should...

I copied and pasted the snippit below. It is a shame that the Intel compiler, which use to be almost the no-brainer choice if your primary concern was fast code, is now being coerced into being a marketing tool. Crippling the output for non-Intel chips may mean that some published benchmarks...

I think what you meant was,, it's not BS but the fact tom did not like BS to the extreame which explained why he did not like intel.... No! He could see as we do all or most here do ,,,,, the BS marketing and called it like it was. long before big money got involved and Omid stuck his idiot...

Tom himself could not stand intel and exposed them pretty much at every opportunity. I think that was a main reason for the intial popularity of thg that and overclocking. I agree his view points were true,,,,, but they usually talked down the intel hype or exposed the misleading marketing of...

That is the most intelligent thing you have ever said, by a long shot. While it's possible something like judge corruption could happen, I personally see that stuff reserved for banana republics and what not. AMD can expect to get a fair trial in the u.s. and I expect they will. What bugs me...

Really, how long have you been studying cpu performance? Intel was much better in the past compared to AMD. Generally the further back you go the better intel was compared to amd. I agree for someone on a very low budget who wants to run 3 or 4 intensive cpu programs all at the same time this...
