Tom's Articles Loading Slow?

[davemar14]

Almost every article I try to load on Tom's is slow. I have tried different PC's and have got the same problem. Anybody else having/noticing this problem? My connection speed is fine and I still download at the same speed I normally do. I have DSL 640/160.

Think the server is a Xeon 😱)
With an Opteron it would run much faster, but Tom does not like AMD to well.


Toms Hardware Site is a joke !

Anandtech just posted a review on Opteron VS Xeon

Read the conclusion Anandtech is switching over to a

In a 4-way configuration AMD's Opteron cannot be beat, and thus it is our choice for the basis for our new Forums database server. We'll be documenting that upgrade in a separate article so stay tuned.

I guess it won't be a Dell.

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.
