AMD FX-4120 > Intel i5 2500k

[samuelspark]

Both cpu's are going to be around the same price (when fx-4120 comes out), but...

AMD FX-4120 Intel i5 2500k
3.9 GHz (stock) 3.3 GHz(stock)
1 MB L2 cache (per core) 256 KB L2 cache (per core)
8 MB L3 cache (shared cache) 6 MB L3 cache (shared cache)
4 cores / 4 threads 4 cores / 4 threads

AMD's bulldozers are going to nom-nom on Intel's processors.

Prove me wrong (or agree with me).

 

[CoffeeDrinker]

I am just waiting for the Bulldozer to move over from Intel, I have been hearing about Fusion for the last 5 yrs or so, but now is the time for AMD to "Hopefully" Dominate some market.

 

[samuelspark]

Aren't they coming out on the 19th?

 

[cats_Paw]

we shall see, no rush to bet on a winner when there is nothing to be won 😀.

 

[yummerzzz]

Don't see any Intel Bashing but oh well.

Btw, the Zambezi's got delayed AGAIN until October. LOL

 

[yummerzzz]

So, OP is bashing Intel.

Not the whole thread.

 

[samuelspark]

There's a reason why I asked you guys to prove me wrong.

There's a reason why I asked you guys to prove me wrong.

I prefer AMD, but what you say above is completely nonsensical, As BD has not been released yet nobody can prove you wrong, but in the same breath you cannot prove yourself right.

 

[Uther39]

lol @ amd smh

once an i5-2500k is oc'd to around 4.5ghz no amd will compare

amds are just the best bang for the buck, they'll never be better than intel on performance but only better on price.

Again another sweeping statement with absolutely no foundation.

 

[BlackHawk91]

Only time will tell, I'm in an urge to upgrade, my system died 2 months ago. That's a lot of time w/o gaming. But I will wait, hopefully, a little bit for some benches.

I have to say, your son most likely has better grammar as well.

 

[spentshells]

Oh no it's the grammar police. You don't have to be able to spell to be a dickhead.

 

[beenthere]

What was the OP's question again?

 

[spentshells]

Foul ? Certainly not.

Look at the top of the thread to see what the question was.

 

[samuelspark]

Sorry guys. This is my fault. I didn't mean this for this to be a troll thread.

 

[computernugget]

so bulldozer holds the record for highest overclock. you cant explain that.

 

[computernugget]

sandy bridge is being replaced very soon. so why keep talking about it, right guys? guys?

 

[weezys_advocate]

sandy bridge is being replaced very soon. so why keep talking about it, right guys? guys?

indeed even if amd catch up with intel and can compete with SB as soon as next gen intel come amd behind again, amd 1 step behind atm and going to be for a while

 

[aftcomet]

It's all speculation until benchmarks are released.

 

[spentshells]

@spentshells...
no need for smart comments i will get this thread closed if this carries on.

You might as well I've seen you offer no real help.

 

[Proximon]

These threads always degenerate and never result in anything productive.

Go help some more folks guys... there's lots of unanswered threads around and I can't get to them all.
