Any idea when AMD and Intel plans on making the Quad Cores available to the consumer market and what the target prices will be?
You mean this?
It’s already out…
As for AMD, i don’t know and i don’t care much about them.
Intel already has theirs out… AMD is on the way I believe, although… I don’t think that they’re a very good buy unless it’s for server use. Super expensive and 99% of the time, a single/dual core will probably hang with it without much of a problem
:bloated:
you dont know much about a great company that forced Intel to innovate through some serious competition. AMD is the reason the processor market advanced as fast as it did.
And as far as their processors go:
not to mention that they, 9 times out of 10, benchmark higher scores than Intel all else being equal
but I didn’t want to waste my breath 
look at the tests, and not the review from some amd leg humper
edit, and apparenlty the quad core seems to be that 1 time out of 10

Honestly why move to quadcore…wait for the prices to come down…
Very few people here max out the dual core…
What processor is the AMD 4 x 4? he’s not referring to cache is he?
Ok. Granted. My real point was that AMD is a damn solid company. Looks like they needed a temporary quad solution until mid 2007. Both companies are always neck and neck. There is little sense in championing one over the other since it always seems to flip back and forth.
yes I know I suck… we covered that topic many times
