Wtf is this about?  
The benchmarks don’t lie, the Intel i5-750 is a faster CPU by about 25% than the AMD Phenom X4 that you bought, despite multiple peoples recommendations in your Nerd thread saying to go with the Intel.

IN MY THREAD IS SAYS IM GOING TO BUILD ANOTHER COMPUTER SHORTLY

IM GIVING AWAY THIS SETUP IN A WEEK OR SO

IT COST ME LESS THEN 200 FOR THE MOTHERBOARD AND CPU THE I5 IS $199 WITH OUT A MOTHERBOARD

And besides all that you’re making some weak attempt to call me out based on the fact I ordered a AMD processor…

Sorry im not some jerk off gamer who sits around and battles over the latest fastest CPU on forums

It’s not $199 if you’re the smallest bit smart with your money. Got mine for $150 brand new.

But stupid logical me…you obviously aren’t smart with your $ because a lil raise at work = spend more more more by upping your budget for a computer you’re only using for a week. Instead of doing the smart thing such as buying stocks or opening a Roth IRA. Silly me!

Nope, you’re the typical average dumb consumer. Congratulations for being average

Yes? I got an unexpected raise and a large bonus check which let me change my budget on buying a PC which in total is still under $1000…

This isn’t like I went and got a used M5 :lol:

However the fact you care about my financial well being is great!

You’re some jerk off gamer who sits around beating off to new CPU benchmarks…

CPU power would hardly be the bottleneck in your setup anyways

If I really cared about going all out on these VMs I would throw a couple of the extra blades from my lab in a blade chassis and hook them up to a SAN here at work…

Disk I/O is going to be a limiting factor on whatever setup I run…

The point was I needed something portable and semi inexpensive to run a number of VMs on for a pen testing lab which is going to get donated to a company im helping get off the ground…I will get my money back from it someday but its not a real concern.

Originally this was going to replace my current desktop but plans changed and this is getting donated and I will build something else in a few weeks.
