Bumping to the new pageGhost wrote:Clarification on processors... if you generally like one brand over the other, you're a fanboy. I'm an Intel fanboy, but I can admit when an AMD chip is better.
Around 2003, before dual-core processors were mainstream, AMD was far behind Intel. When multi-core processors and x64 hit the market, AMD was producing extraordinary chips at prices far cheaper than Intel. As of late, Intel has been back on top, as their top-of-the-line consumer processors are going unmatched, while also learning to keep their prices competitive.
Regardless of what brand you buy, you're going to get something that gets the job done, so you shouldn't worry too much about it. When you talk about getting the better value for your money, it really depends on which brand currently has the better line of products. So, compare it to what I said earlier. At one point, Intel was the better value, then AMD was the better value, then Intel, then AMD, etc. etc.
I personally believe that at this moment, there isn't a dominate brand, so you have to factor in what performance level you're shopping for (i.e. something that just works and is fairly new, OR something that is fucking awesome, new, and will last you for years and years to come).
And again, perhaps you shouldn't even need to consider any of this. If you're a power user, you're going to want to know the exact specs of the machine and get every bit of value out of your purchase. On the other hand, if you want a computer just to get shit done and occasionally have some fun, just fucking go out to Best Buy and tell them you want the best computer that $750 will buy. I prefer not to waste my time with hardware recommendations to people who know absolutely nothing about computers and are too fucking lazy to do the shopping themselves.
True but i dont like how the computer looks lol And ill keep looking since im buying it in Decemberpeow130 wrote:While it may tie with the quad AMD, it lacks DDR3 and Windows 7..Destroyer wrote:Also http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications ... No=4691169 this one ties with the quad AMD
So, for 30 more dollars you're essentially getting faster RAM and a better OS.

but can you tell me with out a doubt that A AMD can run anything that its corresponding Intel chip can?>_> Took ya that long lol? Best Buy is selling A Quad Core Athon ll With 8 gb of ram i just dont know what type and what graphics card ._. lolpeow130 wrote:derp

I got lucky and mine came with a Nvidia graphics card...Not the best but a hell of a lot better then on my old computer with the crappy chipset.
Sound Card kicks ass when I tweaked some settings.
HP did something right for once
