Old News.

ATI's X1800 XT is a monster & OC's very high on air.

Single X1800XT card can beat 2 x 7800GTX in SLI

Now that is power.

Yes, I also agree with Josh.

Now this is what I call glory to the Greeks. I never new that they were so powerful in the mind.

No wonder the world as we see it today revolves around the Greek teachings.

Nice one Super,

Yes, I also have a copy too, but I don't think the 64-Bit likes the high OC's for some reason. But quite possible :guh:

I don't know, I smell One World Government or One World Order. This is becoming :alien:

I do not like what the Government is trying to do here with these crazy ID cards. I think it's a scandle or something.

What next, computer chips in out palm to scan for info or something LOL :yammer:

I quoted this off the AMD Web Forums. ;)

Dual Core's will probably \"NOT\" be better @ multi-tasking. They will be 100%+ better with \"ONLY\" Multi-Threaded\" app's, games & programs.

We cannot confuse what Multi-Tasking is & what Multi-Threading is. Both are 100% Completely different things.

I've seen reviews which showed hardly an improvement with Intel's new EE Dual Core CPU's vs. there P4 660 series. With Multi-Tasking, it's there lengthier pipelines which give them better performance.

AMD?s Athlon 64 3500+ was benchmarked against Intel?s currently fastest Dual Core CPU called Pentium D & Extreme Edition, well the AMD killed in gaming performance & in many other benchmarks, but when they benchmarked with Multi-Threaded games & programs, the Dual Core took the cake by far. That is the difference.

Expect AMD?s Dual Core CPU?s to out perform by far Intel?s Dual Core CPU?s. Intel?s Dual Core?s are suffering due to a single FSB feeding both CPU?s. That is a terrible design, so Intel increased the L2 cache to try & relieve the bottlenecks caused my both CPU?s fighting over the FSB.

Dual Core CPU's are all going to be Over Priced & Intel will advertise to make you think you need it right now, where as \"YOU DO NOT NEED Dual Core Right Now\"

Don't worry, by the time AMD comes out with there Super Dual Core Desktop CPU's there will be a lot more \"Multi-Threaded\" Games & Programs coming out I hope.

Single Core CPU = Single Threaded App's.
Dual Core CPU = Multi-Threaded App's. (Most of the time, one CPU would do all the work while the other sits @ idle & generate loads of heat to your diss-advantage i.e.: Intel Dual Core CPU's are doing just that)

AMD is looking better @ Dual Core everyday I'd say.

My Graphic's Card Rock all of you. :angel:

Nothing like a wonderful Opteron @ 1.40GHz don't you say????????

Check out the requirements for Microsoft's 64-Bit OS
QUOTE:
Yes, they should because Win XP Pro 64-Bit will only be coming out as OEM.

Now just to show how much more powerful AMD Athlon 64's are See for yourself

Windows Server 2003 Standard x64 Edition / Windows XP Professional x64 Edition
Minimum System Requirements

Minimum CPU Speed
? AMD Opteron Model 140 (1.4 GHz)

? Intel Xeon processor 2.80 GHz (800 MHz FSB and Intel EM64T)

? Intel Pentium processor with Hyper-Threading Technology 3.20 GHz (800 MHz FSB and Intel EM64T)

Recommended Minimum CPU Speed
? AMD Opteron Model 140 (1.4 GHz)

? Intel Xeon processor 3.60 GHz (800 MHz FSB and Intel EM64T)

? Intel Pentium processor with Hyper-Threading Technology 3.60 GHz (800 MHz FSB and Intel EM64T)

Minimum RAM
512 MB

Multiprocessor Support
Up to 4

Minimum Disk Space for Setup
4 GB

AMD Rocks !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, the FX-55 is the obvious choice seeing that the Intel 660 requires TWICE the speed to keep pace with the Athlon 64. :yes:
