intel vote #125

first desktop family had a intel in it. well under 100mhz but ya.

second was a p2.

third was a p4 3.0ghz with HT

then my first computer in my room had triple the ram the p4 did, top of the line gpu, 80 gb hdd, and an amd that was sloooooooooowwwwww. i installed xp every month, on the 31st cause it wasnt really usable otherwise. just got to slow.

then my second i made, the one in my sig, and honestly LOVE IT

then i bought a $200 dollar laptop. same frequency processor as my first desktop. its an AMD, pretty slow. less ram, but atleast stable.

I have also built customers tri and quad core amd builds, was amazed at price/performance ratio, and temperature with stock cooler, but honestly intel just seems superior. stronger, faster, more reliable in my eyes as i have much more experience with them as well.

Thats so true. I tell people that I got to go to 'AMD Texas to see an OC event" and they are like, never heard of that company before.

The only legit way to explain it to people is say "Intel's biggest competitor"
