	[CPUs] New CPU for gaming. Last matching post: It sounds like you're on a budget so I'd really avoid the E8500 or the Q9450. You'll get pretty much the same bang for your buck with a E72 [...]		Speciallk87	29	712	epsilon84 07-21-2008 at 01:01 AM
	[CPUs] am2+ upgrade help Last matching post: Definitely get the 9600. It's a great CPU at that price. Be warned though. I got no overclock out of mine :(.		drippyfausett	18	278	Mathos 07-12-2008 at 07:12 AM

	[CPUs] energy efficiency Intel or AMD Core Duo E Last matching post: Yeah actually I agree with wisecrack. Get the 4450e with a 740G. Should be more than enough for your needs.		niels63	13	297	cjl 07-10-2008 at 06:04 AM
	[CPUs] amd vs intel Last matching post: I just bought a 9600 black edition from newegg for $160 - 55 for combo with a 4850. I was going to get the E7200 because I read it was almo [...]		PossiblyReefer	29	337	Zorg 07-06-2008 at 04:15 PM
	[CPUs] amd price drop tomorrow :-) Last matching post: Going from a 4800 x2 to a 5000 BE seems like an unnecessarily small upgrade. I may pick up a 5000 BE myself to replace my 3800. Spec'ed ou [...]		ben10218	19	839	NiGHTsC 04-08-2008 at 08:51 PM

	[CPUs] Quad AMD or Core2 Intel Last matching post: I wouldn't say they're "pieces of crap." They're certainly slower than the Q6600 but they're significantly cheaper too. Plus I p [...]		tjcinnamon	12	396	FrozenGpu 03-19-2008 at 02:31 AM

	[CPUs] AMD: Stubborn or just Dumb? Last matching post: Maybe I'm just too much of an AMD fan, but I really don't see why people think Intel has a huge lead on AMD. Just as an example, I was thin [...]	2	redboy33	83	3824	reynod 03-01-2008 at 07:45 AM
	[CPUs] Investing in AMD Last matching post: Sonoran - Actually I'd argue the opposite. There's nothing to keep wall street analysts from following website forums and trust me, there's [...]	2	nukchebi0	53	1115	caamsa 02-26-2008 at 05:41 AM
	[CPUs] Good Computer Build for Stock broking? (Phenom Build) Last matching post: The 9500 runs $199 on newegg. Whereas the Q6600 runs $275. I really don't see why everyone is recommending the Q6600. It's not that much [...]		xpyrofuryx	25	802	Shadow703793 02-21-2008 at 10:38 PM

	[CPUs] Im sick of the AMD vs. Intel benchmarks. Please help. Last matching post: To OC the E2160 you have to overclock everything else in your system. The BE only requires you to OC the processor. With both at stock [...]	2	Dunkel	89	2229	reynod 01-23-2008 at 07:37 AM
