Intel grinds all progress to a halt as competition from AMD flops completely.

According to Fuad ... you will get nothing more than 3.2Ghz and all other advances will cease.

You will get no more milk and honey ... LOL ... unless you overclock what you already have.

Enjoy Intel Fanbois ... you know it is what you want.

AMD4Life

You know a C2Q 3.2ghz is already fast enough

Yep ... a q6600 would do me.

I tried a thunderman post for a bit of fun.

Fuad had some pics of the dual rv670 ATI card there too.

Bit of fun.

heh I saw the ATI 3870X2 pictures inside an Intel box!

Thanks Reynod, that was helpful.

I for one hope the industry does slow down and let developers catch up a bit.

I don't use more than 40% of my quad core when gaming right now..

Let the GPU segment catch up again.

lol


AMD is so far behind that Intel stops because they arent even in the same ballpark.

Yah...AMD4Life


Personally...I cant wait for the E8400 45nm...I will probably be upgrading my E6700 right off the bat if it isnt too expensive.

Sad that its twice the processor of an AMD that costs twice as much

Very true.

Once the fanbois finish their refreshing glass of Cool-aid.... this is why we need an AMD. I wonder where we would be if there wasn't competition in the market (and yes I think that AMD would do the same thing).

So what's the big deal? ALL of the car companies are doing this... we could have hydrogen cars but we don't, we could have had them 20 years ago, but we don't. all about dough. and intel is happy milking every dime out of you that they can, that's why they release a new proc every 10 minutes whenever they're under heavy competition from amd, but when they get ahead, just sit back and let the dough roll in (on the manufacturing end anyway). This will give AMD time to make up some sales as well. and to be quite frank, my next cpu is going to be the amd black 5000+. no need for anything higher at the moment, that's a kickin proc for a damned nice price.

I don't understand why people blame on fanboys when a company's performance falls dramatically. Did those fanboys cause AMD to fail in competing against Intel? No. Did those fanboys cause Hector to make incorrect decisions? No.

Sure, without AMD, we'll be paying through our nose, blah blah blah. TBH, I am sick and tired of these craps. One fact is certain, there needs to be competition in an industry. However, using that as a way to blame on the fanboys are pretty pointless.

You post a link to a site called FUD.....

Nothing in that FUD is based on fact... Or worth a FRAK for that matter.

This is very stupid of Intel because they underestimate AMD. They may feel like they are ahead....the black edition Phenoms CPU's are here now...Intel will be hit hard. The black edition will give Intel some real headaches because the only unlocked CPU Intel offer is the expensive Extreme edition. Black Edition is just the start because the B3 stepping is coming...when they hit the market...Intel are finished. AMD will kick evil Intel some more while their down because of the Anti-trust court case.

I predict huge loses for Intel in 2008

Hopefully Microsoft will release another OS

even with the unlocked multipliers, I doubt the phenom BE will be up to the standard of even the q6600 G0 when it comes to OC'ing.

Oh my, 9nm becoming more like Sharidouche?

This should be fun

For myself, I really don't care if Intel slows down production. It just means that there will be less cost in trying to keep in with changing technology and that our hardware will have a longer usefull life. Besides, a 3.2 ghz Q9770 that can be overclocked to around 4 ghz on air sounds plenty good to me.

Planned obsolescence. It's why intel has money.

Its not like AMD hasn't done the same thing, abandoning 939 for AM2, which doesn't run a lot faster. And then there was the short lived QFX, now AM2+, which hasn't worked well and whose 790FX motherboards have problems. No, both companies have fed the tech race, along with Nvidia and ATI whose graphics cards are constantly changed for the next best thing.
