LOL. Remember AlecStar?? Tiggers 4GHz Intel SMASHED Alec's AMD which was way higher than what you state would beat it. So...suck it.

I spammed you for fun, I know it ain't gonna achieve anything...

You're so sad you have to bring what I do in private to the public...

Pretty pathetic imo lol..

15 posts and your already insulting people? i wouldnt recommend that...

Ashen has actually been a user for a while I believe (his old user name was Ashenguard).

Anyways, AMD needs to spend more money to make it.
However, the delays are costing them a good deal.
But if you look at it they have lowered prices quite a bit, so for the average spender an AMD system is def. cheaper and you can get a better bang for the buck.
Unfort., Intel sees this and is countering.

But nothing can beat a dual core for under $60 :)

PS --> Childish fights like this really piss me off. This is a forum and they are both completely off topic. I think they both deserve at least 1 infraction for this.

Guys stop arguing, there's no point. Just leave it or you'll both going to get temp banned by the mods, its not worth it. Each of you are entitled to your own opinions.
Especially as Ashen has stopped.

I'm hardly worked up am I?

This is a forum, where only words are posted.

My words can sound fun and jumpy or angry and mean etc...

It's how I choose to post that makes the difference. In this case I choose to post in a mean way. I'm not worked up at all :D

I don't mind getting temp banned.

Personally I think we've wasted too much space on tthis thread and all flame posts should be deleted.

I see who started it, but you are in the wrong as well.
This hasn't been the first time I have seen you in a fight like this as well (as I have been around here for a long time).

Most of your posts are SPAM in here and you are just fighting and fighting like a little kid.
This is not the place to do it.
This is about AMDs Debt piling up, not about you.
The world does not revolve around you.

Anyways, AMD needs to generate some revenue now with the ATI cards coming out.
It has to be priced just right so it can compete with Nvidias.

OK now back on topic,
Cash don't respond to the above badly, just leave it and lets get back on topic.

I'm a bit unclear on this but will AMD's soon-to-come chips have an AM2 variant?

Their Phenom chips (thats what they are called now) will be AM2.
The next chipset will be AM3 and will use DDR3 RAM.
So that wont be for a while.

Whats amazing is how well a 4 years old design AMD 64 holds up when you compare it to a just designed Core 2 Duo . That a testiment to the quality and longevity of AMDs products. This is no where near like how badly the 64 killed the Pent4. The 64 can compete very well with a Core 2 Duo. Where a Pent 4 could not hold the 64s jock.

am2, am2+ and am3 are ment to be useable in am2 boards from what amd has stated (over and over) am3 wont come for a good while yet, am2+ only comes into excistance because the server side needs the new fetures like new faster hyper transport(def not needed for desktop systems) and the dual/multi voltege planes for each core, again, not needed, could be good for servers or if you want to try and lower ur power use when not all cores are being used fully, but for most desktop users its useless.

i want a kuma or rana core, hell i would settle for a spica core if i could get ahold of one :)

True. However I went AMD now because it was simply so much cheaper for me. About 2/3rds of the price, maybe less. And I reckon I probably get more from it than my mates E6300 stock, now that its at 2.79.

I think Ashen is in the wrong here, why ain't he banned too?

He was sent a warning which Casheti would have gotten .. but to end it fast he said he did't mind so .. poof ...
