MORE PROOF OF TOMS HARDWARE BIAS

[gpfear]

You can track down people very easily in this information age.

 

[dvdpiddy]

ok i'll pm you the details if you want

 

[RichPLS]

Do you really have to track them down if they offer up thier real address? :roll:

 

[dvdpiddy]

what rich you know teachers never give out their addresses anymore cause somekids are really really crazy :mrgreen: :drooling mad <pointing thumbs at himself> me

 

[dwave]

Back on the subject, I do not believe that Tomshardware is biased for Intel. When they run benchmarks they all go through the same ones. I will admit that sometimes they make comments supporting Intel, BUT they give credit to AMD and don't cover any performance advantages up. Maybe they like Intel, but in the tests they don't try to tip the benchmarks in Intels favor, otherwise AMD would never win a single one.

Everybody can say what they want about Toms but uh, what's the one site that has been showing alot more to us about the whole Intel thing?

The answer is AnandTech and yet, they're usually the ones claimed to be AMD biased by so many people. Go figure ...

 

[dvdpiddy]

yes they are claimed bias by intel fanoys when in o3 the a64 came out and beat prescott

 

[Ycon]

AT is biased, so is THG, just go off and read the titles of the articles.

 

[dvdpiddy]

dude read an article form 03 on thg about the a64 see what it says

 

[Ycon]

The total truth.

 

[dvdpiddy]

what?

 

[apache_lives]

P4 let us all down, P3 (P6) did not - conroe is not a netbust chip its based on P3/P6/Pentium M

i think we all still have intel mistrust because of it

 

[Guest]

Please stop crying.

 

[Ycon]

Huh? You make no sense...

I have a question for everyone...

Tell me why everyone is bitching? "Oh damn, a website says something that I don’t believe is true." Right?
Okay, so then the next logical step would be to come to the conclusion: "Oh, well that site is bogus; I'm not going to bother much what that anymore."
But you (no one specific) refuse the accept that; rather proceed to discredit the statements in question.
Because the person who provided the ideals you cant accept isn’t fighting back, I honestly doubt where-ever you take the he-said, she-said garbage is going to change the idea you so desperately are trying to disprove.
Creating a thousand posts bashing one processor over another, one person, or one idea isn’t going to change the fact that you’re visiting a website written by someone who believes something different then you.
Wouldn’t it be easier to just not read the articles you disagree with? We all know there are other sites out there, whom share different views... Go say hi to them for a change.
I'm not Jewish, but I don’t tell followers of Judaism their wrong, I just don’t go to temple. It's that simple...

What it comes down to is... All I hear is waah, if you don’t like what you’re reading, don’t read it.

Am I the only one who thinks this?

GAH. Stop calling random chips the P6.

The P6 was the PENTIUM PRO.

And Conroe is based on the Pentium M, not the PIII. Yes, the Pentuim M was based on the PIII, but the PIII was based on the PII and the PII based on the P6, which was based on the P5.

So, Conroe is based on the P5 I guess.

The PIII used PC100 memory and was very different than the current Conroe architecture. Please stop comparing them. Conroe uses a lot of technology that made NertBurst what it was. If you remember, NetBurst was just a quad-pumped FSB transport. All of the other things (Such as SpeedStep, Virtualisation Technology, and 64-bit addressing) are still alive in the Conroe.

P6 (686x) is the architecture, the way it works, not so much a core name, and Pentium M originally was a tualatin with twice the cache and the P4 fsb (same fsb design but QDR) and ram dont matter - P4 boards came with SDR support at one time, and speed step etc was in the mobile tualatins - no big deal.

P6 changed the most at once and was nothing like the P5 (pentium 1/586x)), and the sucessors after the Pentium Pro were just tweaked versions, adding features and refining the manafacturing process.

And still you can smell the bias at THG everywhere in their articles. Here's another example:

After you've finished reading that, they make you feel more optimistic about Intel but still bash AMD in a "polite" way.

I reading through these discussions and I am forced to laugh. All this fanboy sh!t. I run and Intel and an AMD system because I can. I game on a FX-57 and I use an Intel for DV authoring and productivity. My AMD system is faster at gaming, loading windows but much of that is due to the fact that there is no extra crap loaded on that system. 2 raid 0 one for the OS and one for games. My intel system runs office 2003, Norton, my media library, etc. I like and enjoy using both my machines. Personally I want to see better technology from both companies. I hated AMD K7's and I hated P4's I am also not to impressed with AMD's X2 line I find it lacking I want more from a proc. I also consider the platform that proc is installed on. Nvidia has had alot of time to perfect the nForce 4 platform and it works wonderfully with AMD procs. Anyways just my 2 cents...

Wow you AMD fanboys are too much in denial, mad mod mike and DVDpiddy are the worst.

Here is the list of people who like to take it up the ass from AMD:
DVDPIDDY
9inch
MadModMike

You guys really love it dont you? and when intel comes and kicks the crap outa AMD, you get angry cause AMD isnt there to give its daily penitration.
