I think Toms should do a poll to see what chip you run on your home computer. From the forum, sounds like a ton of AMD users, but those Intel freaks could just be hiding out. Maybe a GPU poll could follow it. Think it would be kind of interesting.

TBird 800 - Asus A7V 1005a
256 PC133 - Maxtor 45GB ATA100
Radeon 32DDR - SB Live MP3+
 
Tbird 1000 - Asus A7V 1005a
256 PC133 - Western Digital 30GB ATA100
Asus 7700 32MB Pure - SB Live Value

Lets add cooling to that :)
Normal retail fan + frontal intake
 
athlon 500 (old school)- Asus K7V
256 PC133 cas3- maxtor 27GB ATA66
Guillemot Maxi gamer xentor 32MB
(Fastest TNT2 ultra ever even though doesn't do 4x it was made with faster ram then all others.)
MX300- moster sound (it's not awful)
COOLING- large Global Win 2 fan heat sink
Card cooler (2 large fans over graphics card) Hard drive cooler (2 intake fans in front of HD) New ball bearing intake fan in front one in back and one on top blowing hot air out. Keeps my feet warm in the winter.

"Are you saying that I can dodge bullets?"

Did you ever realize that Tom's is a little slanted towards AMD?!!! He did do a good review of the PIV and I am glad of that. I have respect for his work. Why isn't AMD getting hammered on the 760 DDR chipset? Hmmmm

Just maybe that is why not very many Intel people here.

By the way:

750 Athlon Abit KA7
Gladiac (GF2) SBLive
HP 9200I CDR/W scsi
Pioneer 12x DVD
20 gig IBM Deskstar
30 gig IBM 75GXP
Hollywood live
AHA-2910C scsi
Netgear 104 Nic
Seventeam 400 watt power

<b> Fragg at will!!! </b>
 
Intel 550E@733
Asus P3B-F
256 PC133 CAS 3
Tekram 390 U2W
IMB 9LZX 10K RPM
WD Enterprise 18.3G 10k RPM
Voodoo3 3000 (hey it still works)



***Hey I run Intel... but let's get real***
 
Well, if somebody wants to call me prejudiced or that I don't give every processor a chance, here's my debunk:

1)
AMD Tbird 1100
Asus A7V
256MB Ram
Promise RAID controller
2x IBM Deskstar 46.1GB, RAID 0
ATI Radeon AIW 32MB DDR
19" Samsung 955DF Monitor
7 fans:
- Chrome orb on CPU
- regular fan on ATI
- 120mm fan over the PCI cards
- standard power supply fan
- 2 80mm sunnon fans, 1 front, 1 back
- blowhole at the top with another fan
COOL:)

2)
k6-233, old IBM Aptiva
64MB RAM, 3.2GB (IBM) + 6.1 GB (Maxtor) HDDs
1MB ATI RageII+ Built in 2d (ugh)
Diamond monster (original Voodoo, 4MB:)
etc etc

3) IBM 770ED laptop
Pentium II 266, 64MB RAM, 8.0GB HDD, 14.1" TFT, DVD-ROM, Token Ring network, etc etc

4) Old IBM Pentium 200 Laptop, not even sure whats all in there:)

5) Cyrix 586-100 Mhz, 16MB RAM... that thing is being given away as we speak:)

6) Palm IIIC, Motorolla 68000 (I think?)

and in the closet somewhere:

Amiga 500, upped to 1MB RAm
Amiga 2000, CPU upgrade, RAM upgrade, 2x40GB Syquest Cartridges + external reader:)

That's a LOT of different CPUs :smile:

Hehe poeple always ask that

go in the overclocking forum and check it out, it's in there about 90 times.

but the fastest classic chip was 1Ghz. (first GHz chip ever)
