Get it. It's faster than the 7800GS and will give you better image quality.
Stock CPU FSB for C2D is 266Mhz which is multiplied by 4 to get your rated FSB (1066Mhz) Standard DDR2 is 533Mhz (266x2=533) So it is in sync with...
I understand his argument about the P4. But when you put in context as to what it is and what performance is made available by it. It is...
flame? no, I'm not trying to tell you anything. I was only asking for some scores or numbers to confirm it :frown: It would be interesting to see...
lol..someone can't handle being proved wrong..lol...It's OK I'm done. But to be fair this whole thread was directed at ME;) see the title?
It's not the same G L with Intel. You lose a good bit when running out of sync with the FSB. And there is no divider to lower memory speeds. So...
What kind of score did you get? Because I suspect that it would tell you SLI is enabled much like it would with a SLI capable chipset would even...
I agree the 680i chipsets are looking amazing indeed. Finally a SLI board worth owning :oc: Also I would like to apologize to spajdrik. When...
You were probably only getting the performance of 1 card though as SLI for the 8800 series needs 2 x16 lanes to work ;)
"Passable"? I and many others apparently don't see "passable" as a 3.4Ghz CPU being beaten by a 2.2Ghz one. That's a 1200Mhz difference! And is...
See? We can get along :cheers:
You're speaking about a niche group. People with highend gaming rigs or gaming rigs in general are not the majority. For every gaming rig that was...
I believe that Intel had to do something to regain their #1 status. Do I think it was a desperation move? No, even when they were being beaten by...
What poll? Forget to set it up?...lol Anyway, current CPU in my specs ;)
I've seen that two but that is not a desktop processor, and that is want I was referring to.....should have clarified.
What are you talking about? 128mb L2 cache? 8Ghz? Your friend is blowing smoke up your @ss. One of the main reasons we are moving to a multi...
EDIT and I just notoced he is comparing a 3.4Ghz CPU to a 2.2Ghz AMD ...And it's still losing!! 1,200Mhz faster, and it still can't keep up!...
And this coming from one who is using a Pentium. ;) (thanks, respect for being honest;)) @ bigpipe, the problem is that at lower resolution...
I did, and if you think it's OK that a 3.4Ghz CPU still loses to a 2.2Ghz one, well then we obviously have different standards of what does and...
When you compare them to their AMD counter parts they do indeed SUCK.....and it's even worse when compared to Intels Core 2 architecture. EDIT....
