Jodi said:You're just both upset because you finally have to admit that Intel is better than AMD
I don't have to admit anything. I am perfectly happy in denial.

True Story, AMD will just answer with a faster architecture by Aug 1st.

I don't really care which is faster. I go with whichever is a better bargain for the money. It looks like a nice chip though. I love how people become allied to a certain company. I don't give a shit who you are! The only reason I switched to AMD in the first place is because they were cheaper AND faster for gaming when I bought my most recent hardware. I have no qualms about going back to Intel if I ever get money for more parts.
Yeah well I am sort of biasedCowPimp said:
Even before I worked for Intel I owned nothing but Intel at home and my job so it's not a true biased opinion. I have always preferred Intel.
You will notice these days that Intel prices are comparable if not better than AMD now
Also our chips are better 
Jodi said:You know that the new Xeon series (code name Woodcrest) was released this month too?
do you know anything about it's coding lang. that it uses like with it's registers?
same as standard intel junk 1xx crap?

I still say it depends on the application. Sure, they are "comparable," but when dealing with a strict budget on a fairly low-end system, AMD is superior still in my opinion. For high-end systems, Intel has done well with this new chip and if they scale up production fast enough will probably compete well on the low and mid-range very soon.

How so, Intel's prices are just as low as AMD's now. Conroe is definately not just for high end systems that's why there is 5 chips out varying in speed. Also there is the Extreme Edition. Your basic new Core 2 Duo standard retail cost is only $199.00. That's insane for this type of technology. AMD can't compete right now. On top of it, Intel lowered their prices 60% on Pentium products. You can now get a Pentium 4 processor under a $100.00 
Jodi said:
Who wants a Pentium 4? At the low end, the Athlon 64 still owns the Pentium 4 when it comes to price performance. It's crap unless you do a lot of content creation. If you do, you might as well just forego getting a PC in the first place and go with a Mac.
Like I said, when you're moving up the scale a bit the new Intel CPUs own. No doubt about it.
Are they available in a MAC?
