lol if a cpu is £60 and less i might consider buying it tbh i dont really care i just see what available for the price if this is tri core dual core or quad core i dont care as long as i get good performance

they shouldnt concentrate on making multi core cpus they should make new cpus have a efficient core and be wicked fast

its like someone went and said oh look we cant be arsed making new cpus lets take old ones shrink them and shuv em into a die, oh and lets hasve em clock to the heavens to compensate for the crappy tech and efficiency

err..... Im having trouble understanding your comment

so what you want for them is to stop making multicore processors & just focus on 'beefing up' their older processors? making them have more effecient cores & be clocked-to-the-heavens?

wouldnt that be worse for them? they way i see it, if that happend they'd literally be dead in the water as intel wont stop & say "holy f**k AMD's sticking to single/dual core" & take a holiday break - intel will keep up with its agressive marketing campaign & possibly even under cut their prices even more who knows what intel can do? theyve got the money to do it. thus forcing AMD to sell all their 'effiecient' & 'clocked to the heavens' procs at prices normally asociated with a shopping trip to supermarket. they wont be making any profit as for the extra $20-30 you can get a Intel Quad Core.

so its a bit of a no brainer.

WarEagleAUThey are taking the defective quad cores and turning them into useable chips. regardless of how you feel, its a damn smart move. This way, they save face and dont lose alot of money on non working chips. Intel made the smart move years back with a separate team dedicated to a new architecture. It worked in their favor. Now AMD is just playing stop gap. I suspect they are working on something better and taking all the good and replacing all the bad with more good. Thats what Id be doing if I were them. I dont need some high level proc to kill Intel. I dont care for them killing intel. I just want a good proc, for a decent price that ocs very well and gives me what I want. Ive yet to try out the phenoms to see if they do that.

Very well said... I agree 100%. :toast:
