Fortunately for the Intel fanboys No.
Fortunately, does not make any diference for the non-fanboys. And fortunately it makes PAIN IN THE A$$ for the AMD fanboys like you.

But don't let that stop you because there are plenty of Intel chips that it is faster than.
and more expencive than.


Just because you live in a cave outside Bitola, I'll forgive your misspelling of EXPENSIVE.


He should still go for a 3800+ or a 4200+. It will be enough for games though not for bragging rights.

Well not only you have been proven an Idiot!!! and now you demonstrate impressive abilities at being a top notch A$$whole 2! :roll:
Besides, not only will the 6300 be cheaper than the 3800, but the 6300 will beat it stock, gaming and especially overclocked... all the while staying much cooler and using less natural resources to operate...
 
NewEgg wants $297 for the X2-3800 at 2GHz...
The Conroe E6300 should sell for around $250 and is at 1.87GHz...
But the Conroe uses 4 IPC verses 3 IPC for the X2...
Also, the Conroe is newer tech, faster, cooler, cheaper and consumes less electricity...
 
The x975 supports crossfire (if you are lucky and find the bios or the proper board mods) never the less a lot of headaches to make them work properly. The only motherboard that is officially supporting conroe is the new p965 chipset. But Unfortunately the board is not SLI or crossfire ready.

And how many people use crossfire and SLI?

The AM2 mobo is SLI ready (for gamers) and upgradable to K8L, which is due by Nov./Dec 06(4 rev G 65nm CPU's this year ) 1stQ 07 K8L will be released in full and as promised will be much better performer than K8.

You're so full of sh!t. Revision G ships in december provided theres no delays and is released next year and K8L is due out mid next year at the earliest.
 
Lets answer this the way that Intel used to answer it.


Conroe 1.86 Ghz runs at 1.86 Ghz obviously
X2 3800+ runs at 1.8 Ghz


Since Conroe runs 600 mhz faster it is obviously faster,....just like how a P4 2Ghz is also faster. lol
 
researched,...I stand corrected.

This being the case,...the X2 is faster than the Conroe (according to established Intel standards for determining performance,...lol)
 
That's true, but consider the price of a Conroe motherboard vs. a 939 or AM2 board. Sure the CPU itself is priced the same or better, but when your motherboard is $200+ the small savings on the CPU is no longer relevant.

Then factor in that AM2 requires the best DDR2 money can buy, to perform decently(more money), whereas Conroe doesn't.

RIGHT!

well... performance is not like a wheel of fortune.

before conroe..INuTEL sucks.. now AModdersDelight SUCKS!!

so fanboys.. STFU!!! and stop whining.

u fanboys sounds so pathetic.

You are forgeting that intel and nvidia will both be releasing motherboards for conroe, and im sure prices for conroe compatable mobos with go way down with that. Besides, you cant buy a conroe today, so it wouldnt realy matter for those buying a conroe just yet.
 
Hmm maybe not then, they probably wouldn't be very obedient unless I burned them with prescotts.
Like you do everyday to the prisoners at gitmo?

Hahahaha I think a friend of mine at the CIA owes me one I will see if I cant get you out man hmmm although burning some one with a prescott does sound kind of fun LOL Feel the wrath of my computations !!! ohhh I better go I think its med time again 😛 hahaha

I will buy AMD. 3800 x2 is just a fine processor and it can overclock very well. I'll try and get the Opty165 but where I live I think it's gonna be a problem.
I already have a 939 rig with some DDR1-500 memory that on benchmarks performs even better that DDR2-667.

Just read the way Intel fanboys respond/react to a post/link.
This alone should give you enough reason to stay as far away and go AMD.
Now why would you wanna lower yourself to their level (lack of inelegance) and be a 24/7 laughing stock :lol: in every forum you visit?. :tongue:
