So....!? What's the value/speed deal right now? by
Bruin
My first big upgrade was a 200mgz to a Celeron 300A that I clocked to 450.

AM2 vs. Socket 939 by
Merrill P. L. Worthington
Have been taking a look at the AM2 processors. What's the big deal? Is
there a major performance jump for AM2 chips? Clock speeds are roughly

65w vs 125w by
Dave[_33_]
Is there a difference between the same CPU running at 65w vs 125w?
I see the same CPU on NewEgg with two different power requirements and
I'm not sure what the difference is.
Thanks!

Athlon 64 more powerful than Itanium 2? Plus Dual core... by
\Guest\
I was just wondering if this is so. I saw a comparison that said it far outdid the Itanium I chip.
I am also new to AMD. I was going to make the switch back when the Athlon first came out but I was afraid of change. Now that AMD has the mem controller on chip, that has peaked my interest. ...

Is AMD Providing the GPU for Nintendo Project Cafe (Wii HD) ? by

It seems that Wii HD, also known as Project Cafe, is going to be using
an AMD R700 based GPU. While old, an R700-based GPU would be *quite*

architecture since Hollywood is an overclocked Flipper GPU from ArtX
