More proof that Intel sucks

The K6-2 was a superb CPU for it's time and price.

Well a celery is Intel and the AMD equivalent (Duron) is a better CPU so
why
shouldn't he say Intel sucks ... it does in this case?

I have been building AMD's for a few yrs but made the mistake of
buying
a
Celeron 2.3GHZ 256MB Dell Latitude ($600 new). What a dog! Decoding
Naked
News at the maximum bitrate in WMP takes 100% of the processor.
A T-Bred 1700+ running @2000+ (1.67GHz) uses only 15%.

And it feels so slow, even after reformatting and installing WinXP
Pro.
It
feels about like a Duron 750 I have running at 933MHz....but slower.

Better then dealing with Via. Now that there are other options, AMDs are
much easier to deal with.

I can't believe so many people fell for this. No way would someone smart
enough to build AMD systems purchase a Dell OR a Celeron . . . especially
not together!!! -Dave

It certainly was. From there for me it was celeron ppga to celeron fcpga to
AMD end of story. I have always built on price/performance above all other
factors.

Noone mentioned the lameness of laptops in general(unfortunately a necessary
design limitation), on another note I worked on an emachine celery 2.5GFhz
with 64megs intelextreme agp onboard, 256megs ddr system ram, after
removing 3 trojans, 75 spywares and coolwebsearch, and a ton of crap
freeware, I optimized the xp/home.
Nothing lame at all, I am sure it would dog down with the small L2, but at
2.5GHZ, it was snappy!

Hi,
silly name for a post. Clearly INTEL don't suck, but I understand your
reasons why you feel the need to prove it to the world. AMD vs INTEL is
such an old topic. . . .

INTEL= Nice + Better quality chipset support
AMD=Nice + slightly better value for MHz hunter

You need to get your hands on some good examples, don't judge a whole
product range because you had one bad apple (P4 Celeron lol!)

Read a little up on intel chipsets(cpu's).
"Better quality chipset support"
in what way? Intel gutted the P4, it's all about ramping core frequency.
Putting out a L1 of 8KB is not what I would consider quality support.

Hi,
The Intel® chipsets (i.e: motherboards) have a much better Dual-Channel
memory controller and a much better SATA-RAID-0 system (ICH5R).

CPU wise I like both AMD Athlons and Intel® Pentium® 4. It's a pity AMD
can't build a decent chipset for their own CPUs, but luckily for them nVidia
came along and gave birth to the nForce2.

So to reiterate, in No SHAPE or FORM do Intel® *suck* :P

Of course you are entitled to your opinion, but mine is there *Both* good. .
..

Peace. . .

I must disagree. I may have misunderstood you. Though not all laptops are
lame. try the alienware Area-51-M the extreme model is better then alot of
desktops.

PS:I know it has an Intel personally i don't have a big check book so i
prefer AMD

It's all about power consumption, heat disipation, size constraints, etc.

Alienware Magnesium Alloy Chassis
Intel Pentium® 4 @ 3.0GHz 800FSB
Hyperthreading Technology
User-Upgradeable Graphics
ATI Mobility Radeon 9600 PRO 128MB

60GB 7200rpm HDD with 8MB Cache
Infrared Remote control
24x CDRW / 8X DVD Combo Drive

over 2 grand, no thanks.
No hard drive space!
No room for extra drives(dvd-rom and dvdrw)
Laptops are always a year behind in the technology!
