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:

> **Pros:** It is Pretty Fast at buisness programs and encoding.  
> **Cons:** My brothers AMD 4x4 Smokes My q6600. He wins in Almost every workstation app. Running PSP pro I can not keep up with him as the 4x4 is much more responsive, Exspecially when Multiple Apps are running. I believe its something to do with the memory bandwidth. On Gaming I hold My own but serving He Smokes Me. Also Be Warned this Thing Runs hotter Than the afterburner on an f-15 eagle.  
> **Other Thoughts:** I bought this for bragging rights over My Brothers AMD 4x4. What a Disapointment. Does anyone wanna trade My qaud core settup for there 4x4 setup.
