Who cares worth every penny

No doubt it will be good, but just wait for what AMD is dishing out next..

Hopefully something that doesnt overheat like the fx-55

 

[Jori]

lol.. This chip on this comp isnt OC'ed and its still stock everything and it overheats.

 

[adas]

lol....prescotts get way hotter then the FX55....

thats cool, but i dont like that theyre going to call the dualcores extreame editions...as that name sucks.
but AMD is comming out with dualcore 64s too, so we'll have to wait and see

Really? I heard the fx-55 is the hottest running chip on the market. Oh well happy with my cold northwood.

well, think of this....usally the stock heatsink with a 775 prescott, u get about 60* loads at least.....now im pretty sure that AMD doesnt have a chip that gets that hot...hopefully...because thats one of the better things going for them, maybe theyll get 55 loads.

 

[Jori]

This Northwood spiked at 71 C on stock while playing Axis and Allies..

 

[adas]

u musta installed the thermal paste on wrong...theres no way that should happen, maybe 55-60* most is normal

 

[Jori]

Didnt build it, store made it... And dad wont let me inside the guts of it unless I have something really important to do..

 

[Mr. Mumbles]

will it be worth it to wait for the duel core chips or just get a fast single now?

 

[comrad]

I have a northwood and it never goes over 48*C and it usually around 40*C overclocked from 2.6 to 3.1.

 

[YiffyGriffy]

That chip is only going to be worth it if you're running multi-threaded software

 

[Sai_Jao]

yeah think bout the mount of software that will have to be recompiled for this. but think how quick divx codin will b

I was on the phone to a guy today complaining about the speed of his machine when we got to talking about processors, and he told me that Sony/Panasonic and some other manufacturer are in the final stages of making a chip which is around 16x faster that the current processors. Anyone heard that or do ya think
its BS?
