Love to hear it! Some people take CS way to seriously. 4 AMD CPUs? Whats the point? I would like to knwo what motherboard he uses, how he cools them, and also photograhic evidence. And please don't use the clone tool on Photoshop, I have 4GB of Ram, and my dad had a Quad G5; I thought that was alot. But when it comes to AMD, at the lower end of things, AMD are generally better. but when you get over 4GhZ, As I know people in the industry, and for the reasons Apple chose them, you can't beat an Intel Chip; I'm hoping for a Intel Dual Core 3.8 or maybe the 4+GhZ Chip to run Vista.
Running a 16Ghz Speed needs alot of resources; does he have over 16GB of Ram to Balance that? Playing Counter Strike, I don't think 16GhZ is needed, I think you can get the maximum out of it (what the game software can handle) with a High End (but not rediculos) grahics card, and a 3.8GhZ Chip, not even that to be honest, Gaming when you get above 4.0GhZ and 1-2GB RAM Is no were near as resource hungry as Image Handling, Web Development, Software Development, Movie Editing, Grahic Design, and animation. Infact, all of the Creative Industry. All Web Design/Visual basic/Software developemnt Windows PC's use Intel Chips, and Apple Macintosh.
What performance test did you run? Also, if your computer is 3 years old it could be running an older graphics card; even AGP, and he may just have 4 AMD stickers on the front. Open the case.
I was being generous, now there's a proper gamer, not fussed about pointless expensive specs... which are not needed.
I realised, he could always be using a 1.6GhZ processor.
