Erm, I think the test is finished...
I like this quote

While the comparison isn't completely fair, since the AMD product is a production system and the Intel systems were still early samples, we still got a lot out of the exercise.
Thats weird I tought the Intel 840 EE was released more than a month ago...uhuh
(EDIT)Oh right I think their talkind about the 955 SLI board..
And why the intel systems were? Oh right they needed a few of them cuz they kept burning!!
Asus P4P800DX, P4C 2.6ghz@3.25ghz, 2X512 OCZ PC4000 3-4-4-8, Leadtek FX5900 w/ FX5950U bios@500/1000, 2X30gig Raid0<P ID="edit"><FONT SIZE=-1><EM>Edited by labbbby on 06/14/05 02:01 PM.</EM></FONT></P>
Well you have to agree that if you run farcry, winrar, a audio encoder AND a divx encoder...your much better off with the Intel rig for divx encondinh =). Especially if you "can't" change the process priority!!!
And as spacedonkey will tell you, this is a real life test, stuff that you do everyday all the time!

I keep my opinion; THG team is the only place to turn an <b>Advantage</b> in a <b>Disadvantage.</b>
Threads Priorities are good, for example, If you run Folding@home all the time you know that You can't play games with a Hyper Transport Pentiun 4 because you going to have the Game competing against the Foldin@home (FAH.exe) process, even with the FAH.exe at Lowest Priority
Now they say that AMD is not good for video encoding, what a shame, Where did they bought their technician certificate?
