Processor Speed being misreported

[klinky]

Yeah, a simple copper pipe with a bit of foam taped to it would cost three thousand dollars. Sure.

Did you read the story, the copper pipe is custom made and needs to be so that it will fit properly on the CPU and withstand stuch cold temps.

Clock for clock and Athlon will still beat a Pentium4, but getting those clock speeds up is the problem with the Athlon. However the Athlon is the best value as of right now.

Uh oh, now dw is going to misconstrue that in the most twisted possible way and bitch at you. Be forewarned!

[klinky]

Logically tho, the Athlon doesn't need uber fast clock speeds. Atleast in the consumer sector. It is also quite competetive in the server sector with the Athlon FX. So long as they stay the price/performance leader I don't think they'll have much problem. Like say maybe the fastest P4 is %10 faster than the Athlon is, but the Athlon costs like %40 less. Which is the better value? Yeah duh, and I'd think it more cost effective to get a farm of those %10 slower Athlons than pay the %40 markup on the pentium.

Weren't you the first of us to do that? I only compared the 5ghz P4 to an extremely overclocked (3.5ghz) Athlon FX... you were the one who brought stock Opterons into the equation.

Do you have a disorder that makes you not realize this thing called "time" and how it works?

Wow, sure looks like you posted first. You can say all you want about me bringing up stock computers, but you comments comparing 5.25 Ghz parts to 3.25 Ghz parts is ridiculous and stupid since such processors don't exist to the consumer. You're just adding more bullshit to this thread like always...

Says some more stupid stuff and tries to make it seem like he knows something although all he does is read articles, make his own broad generalizations about things he doesn't know anything about and thus looks like an idiot.

Uh oh, now dw is going to misconstrue that in the most twisted possible way and bitch at you. Be forewarned!

No because A) Klinky is well-informed on such things, B) Klinky isn't unreasonable and actually listens before making judgements and C) he has more than half a brain.

Oh and let's not forget the fact he owned you *and* generally agrees with me on such things.

Now shut up and stop rocking the boat asshat!

And that has what to do with anything?

And of course your comparison of a 5.25 ghz part to a 2.0ghz or less part is so much more reasonable? (BTW, I never brought up the number 3.25, that was again your doing. I used 3.5, a much higher number)

since such processors don't exist to the consumer

But will in one or two years.

Show me where and I'll believe that you're not making it up.

OK so you have a temporal disorder AND ADD. *YOU* accused me of bringing this up first when in fact you did...

No, I was making the point that if a 2.0 Ghz part can beat it in some benchmarks and is comprable in others, one can make the logical assumption (as Klinky did) that since a 2.0 Ghz solution can do so well, it must be more efficient *and* a 5.0 Ghz solution would be amazing. Mhz to Mhz, the Athlon solution is much more efficient and cost-effective. I guess it was too much for me to assume you'd have half a brain and could actually formulate such obviously apparent theories with such things as logic and reason.

I was also making the point that you're basically saying "OMG if you have this really rare and almost impossible-to-get-for-consumers part, it pwns normal things! OMG I AM SO COOL AND SMART!"

Except, you're not.

But will in one or two years.

Says who? Do you know anything about transistor theory? Have you ever designed a processor or understand the intricacies of one? Are you an expert in this field or a designer on such teams?

I'm guessing the answer is no to all of these questions. One year? Ha! Have you even looked at the roadmaps? Stop trying to look like you know what you're talking about.

Looks pretty owned to me. He destroys your statement by questioning your ability to read and then furthers the argument against you which you later do not retort.

Now SHUT THE FUCK UP! You bring nothing useful to any conversation and everyone here is mocking you. You're just a troll and you've always been that way. Don't you see it? No one cares.

Nice Hot or Not pic. I prefer the one of deadly giant cat though.
