    Is cpu upgrade woth it for me.?

    In reality, there will be a performance increase and if you overclock, so far the lower end Core 2 Duos are looking promising already. However... There's really no reason since you already have a dual-core processor that is very good - you should be getting great performance and it's not like...

    Well as I said a month ago this was a DUD launch

    I hate to say this but you AMD !!!!!!s... I mean, do you have jobs? Lives maybe? I used to think you were human beings but lately I've begun to think otherwise. Maybe you're loyal robots that can't go against their code - you spend your days refreshing internet websites and counting down days to...

    Metal Thermal Compound Better Than AS5?

    That seems like too much trouble for too little benefit - I'll stick with AS5.

    When is the conroe chip coming out?

    Indeed - that's the one I'll be waiting on. See, my computer is more than enough for myself at this time - so I really don't have any trouble waiting for the upgrade. I was tossing sideway glances at some of those dual-core Opterons - but after looking at the benchmarks for Conroe, I'm waiting...

    Where to in the future?

    I just feel that at those low speeds, that'd be a real heck of a nightmare for software. We're talking like, one thread per CPU kind of thing. :eek: I'm definitely the most interested to see software catching up in two threads - let alone keeping up with quad-core etc. Yeah. I'd be...

    Where to in the future?

    It does seem like a software nightmare to me to be honest, splitting all that software up - but I am about as far from a programmer as you can get, so... :rolleyes: Personally I can see tens but hundreds... I guess it'd really depend. Something about 100 2GHz (Or even 1GHz) cores screams...

    Pentium D 920

    What kind of cooling? Damn, you're only a few C above me at full load last time I checked and well, yeah. :D (As a note, I agree. The D920 is worth your money and an excellent processor - especially with it's overclocking potential on air)

    When is the conroe chip coming out?

    Prices and everything are mostly speculation I believe - but I do suppose this is about as close as it gets - all prices would obviously be subject to gross amounts of change. Intel Conroe E4200 2MB 1.60GHz 800MHz FSB Q4 $169. us E6200 2MB 1.60GHz 1066MHz FSB Q4 $179. us E6300 2MB...

    Intel Pc Build Help Needed

    ACK my bad, I'm used to the DDR numbering. :( Sorry.

    Intel Pc Build Help Needed

    The RAM is nothing outstanding - but I've heard very good things about the PSU, and it seems to have done nicely in reviews if I remember. The RAM... Some would recommend maybe getting only 1GB and making it 667 depending on the prices. With a 775 build, DDR2 is your only real choice, so with...

    Intel PC on a budget..

    I agree - if anyone can find a good deal on a dual-core it'd be worth it even if they didn't match a single core's overclocked speeds. If we see more smp patches for games, he could find that the performance gain would be pretty much in his favour - and you'd also benefit from the many other...

    AMD64 3000+ 939 About 50 degrees most of the time

    It would seem that it's most likely bad contact between the heatsink and CPU, although to be honest bad airflow could definitely cause that - although it could be other reasons. Your friend doesn't have any thermal paste like Arctic Silver 5?

    Updated benchies of Conroe vs. the FX60 @ AT

    First point - if the team doesn't exist, you are cheering for nothing, putting money on nothing, and supporting nothing. And you can't call AMD your "team," and then simultaneously say that a game your team played and lost in has "no right" being stickied in "your turf." Second point - how...

    Wait for M2?

    There's always that uncertainty regarding it - not all are created equal, and it goes without saying that not everyone will get the same results. But the chances are consistently higher (Nearly to an assumed average) with Opterons.

    Exciting new Conroe Info @ IDF!

    I'm with you on that... If they release any, I'll be getting an E6600 and trying for 2.67GHz+. But that all depends on how overclocking goes with Conroe too. I'm just hopeful... If I can get the kind of performance shown in those benchmarks? I'd be happy. :D Especially if it isn't at a price...
