Originally Posted by Nenkitsune I first loved AMD because the old socket A chips destroyed intel clock for clock, (at the time I had a P3 1Ghz chip) then when I decided I needed something better, but for cheap (16 year old kid with min paying job) AMD had the best products for me, for dirt cheap (friend gave me a mobo, and a Duron 1600 was something like 15 bucks on newegg) then I broke my duron, and once again, AMD was the cheapest solution to upgrade while gaining performance, and has been every time I've had to upgrade my system. in fact, my mom's S754 Venice 3000 is still running after me owning that chip and overclocking the piss out of it, then swapping it into her system so I could have her newcastle 3200 (which is now mounted on its motherboard on my wall) there were times when I wanted to switch to intel to get more performance, but EVERY time I've checked prices, I could build an AMD system that would keep up with everything intel had in the same price range. actually, when I finally made the switch to dual core, it was as an emergency because my s754 motherboard started to die, and the cheapest intel dual core cost as much as my entire upgrade (which consisted of a motherboard, cpu, heatsink, and ram) oh yeah, and I love AMD even more now because AM3 is compatible with AM2 |

I don't like Intel for the sole fact that they could keep throwing money at a problem and get it done. But AMD is different. They do things with innovation. Not only that but they stand their ground even though they are quite the little company. Oh and compared to my 920 i7 rig, my AMD is super slick. I guess what I have said is part of the reason why I haven't updated my sig rig. |
