Gryph Posted February 1, 2004 Author Posted February 1, 2004 right now its Intel specially the HT onesWell the HT is only program specific, just like AMD's 64 bit. Do you have any programs that use HT? I didn't know of any that have come out except for like Photoshop. But AMD's HT (Hyper Transport) owns all. It will make new I/O devices communicate at around 13 Gb/s!
Lightsier Posted February 2, 2004 Posted February 2, 2004 AMD 64's definately. The Intel Prescotts as of right now suck, but they might be better later. The Pentium4's initial release sucked too, then we got the 478 core and they got way better.
Juniel Posted February 2, 2004 Posted February 2, 2004 .........why...why... why the heck did I choose Cyrix....
StriderVM Posted February 2, 2004 Posted February 2, 2004 AMD of course, in reality, if you will make it comparison, speed "per" Mhz (Err. bang per mhz... XD), then AMD's is definitely faster........ Because in reality AMD's processor's are a whole lot slower Mhz wise, but is still very competitive to Intel Processors. As for Cyrix.... After trying out the M3, bleh, a perfectly configured K6-3 processor is faster of exact clock speeds, believe it or not....... Anyway, whats the news on the current, fastest, latest processors?
Wizard Posted February 2, 2004 Posted February 2, 2004 Intel P4 Extreme Edition 3.2(?) Ghz. 2mb in its cache, 800 fbs, fastest CPU to date
possessed Posted February 2, 2004 Posted February 2, 2004 AMD all the way, although SPARC cpus (SUN) are gr8 for some work
Gryph Posted February 2, 2004 Author Posted February 2, 2004 Intel P4 Extreme Edition 3.2(?) Ghz. 2mb in its cache, 800 fbs, fastest CPU to dateWell MHZ-wise. The AMD Athlon FX-51 performs better though, atleast in games (where it counts )
Juniel Posted February 2, 2004 Posted February 2, 2004 so...uh..where does cyrix fit into all this? anyone wanna say anything good about Cyrix?....or not...
Lightsier Posted February 3, 2004 Posted February 3, 2004 (edited) Pentiums are always clocked higher and people are like "OH MY GOD! IT's 3.4GHZ! IT MUST BE FASTER!" Which is untrue. AMD's are not clocked as high at Pentiums, but preform faster. The whole clockspeed is very misleading. And why you picked Cyrix? I dunno, that thing sucks. I'd put it on a sucky level with the Celeron core. Edited February 3, 2004 by Lightsier
