Are Intel joking re: i3 pricing?

I'm not an intelfanboi, I am just easily offended by the rampant stupidity that seems endemic amongst hard core AMD users.

Sure there are some Intel equivalents, but their numbers are so few by comparison.

and here a total of about 5 minutes ... and oh so much to say ... and so little time to read and listen.
What's that supposed to mean?

Unless you had a previous account ... something to do with nails?
You got me curious there, what's deal with nails?
 



Well looks like sigh found his home..... I wondering why he hasn't been on lately.
 

They forced him out before because he was an embarrassment even to them, perhaps they will do so again?
 


LOL - I still remember all his glowing posts about Quad FX and what a great leap forward it would be in platformance, or maybe flatulence - I got confused after a while :kaola:

However I'll agree with Reynod that his posts were often witty and sarcastic. He just had to learn to lay off the ad hominem, esp. when it came to JJ & company, who now post mainly on Jenny's fave site, X_C_P_U_s 😀. Of course, they did make a kamikaze run through here recently as well, but I haven't seen BM post here under his own name in a couple years now.
 


LOL - part of the fanbois skool of posting is that there is an explanation for everything, such as all the review sites are paid off or biased, the benchies are rigged, measuring power at the wall is invalid for otherwise identical rigs, TLB was extremely rare and the sales halted mainly for the server customers, etc etc. Also hijacking the thread, denial, ad hominem attacks, etc are part of the basic skill set of true fanbois 😀.
 


Probably 9-inch Nails, if I recall the name correctly, but I thought he was an AMD fanbois, not Intel.. Hard to keep 'em all straight - maybe fanbois need to be required to wear merit badges, like Upendra's except green or blue as the case may be :kaola:
 



Nah thunderman, 9-inch, parrott and many more sock puppets were drive by posters.
 


Don't recall that much detail about him or her as the case may be, but BM was the arch-defender of all things AMD 😛. He'd duke it out with all comers, as well as some goers :sol: . Where BM lost me was with his defunct blog where he wore the silver disco suit in his picture. IIRC he lived in NYC, so maybe he was also a "Stayin' Alive" movie fanbois 😗
 


Saddest thing is BM skipped out on QuadFX after all that hyping he did.

Then I heard he skipped Phenom since it didn't prove to be 40% better than kenstfield, it proved to be 10% worse.

Now he has a Phenom II system.

To me, I think hes a bandwagon fan. He talks the talk, but wont ever walk the walk if he is wrong.



Ewwww..... They were the ones who ruined many a thread much like sighQ2 does....... and some others.....
 


LOL - yep, I think everybody noticed that BM didn't live up to his own hype - made him a sort of hype-o-crit 😛.

And I agree about SighQ2 - I haven't reported anybody's posts in something like 2 years, until his parting shot in another thread where he unloaded on somebody with over-the-top ad hominem. Luckily he hasn't been here since then - maybe he got a temp ban or something. I just learned to skip over his posts since they lacked anything of value for the most part...
 


LOL - and here I was expecting a link to a thread with more trash talk from Sigh. Shouldda known better I guess... :kaola:
