AMD 6000+ or Intel E6600

[Emlyn_Dewar]

You have an AM2 mobo already right?

 

[jaykay]

when did you get the mobo
if it was around feb07 and earilier then you will need to update your bios
as the 6000 came out in feb-march

Yeah, but thats irrelevant as the article was comparing two equally priced cpu's.

I disagree, among my friends (and most of them build their own pc) I am the only one that overclocks; I told them so many times about it but they don't care and replay with shorten the life of the cpu, instability etc etc.

So they look at the price of the cpu and performance at stock clocks

BTW most of them have AMD in desktops and intel in laptops

This is what i have found amongst my mates etc. None of them Overclock. All they are concerned with is how the PC runs at stock.

So, to sum up, the AMD 6000 is the one to choose if running the CPU at stock? Yes?

it is now considering the price

Wow, thats interesting.

It completely destroys the E6300 in some games.

Yeah, the Serious Sam 2 results are pretty shocking - although that said, Croteam's engines have always seemed to favour AMD quite strongly for some reason.

right do ocuk do price match on these cause can be had for 125 which is quite bit difference

 

[jrodga2k5]

impresive scores, save your cash get the 6000+ cant be too bad eh

It's well worth looking into overclocking. C2d's are great, cause you can buy a £150 cpu and have it perform better than a £600 cpu The AMD's have a fair bit of give in them too

So long as you're cautious, and it doesn't belong to your Dad, it's all good

It's well worth looking into overclocking. C2d's are great, cause you can buy a £150 cpu and have it perform better than a £600 cpu The AMD's have a fair bit of give in them too But the higher end X2's are already at the top of their potential - hence all the people recommending C2D.

So long as you're cautious, and it doesn't belong to your Dad, it's all good
