Hyperthreading (HT) is only in Intel chips. AMD is going to do dual CPUs
on one core first, then maybe add Intels HT to it later on if needed.

Return the AMD and go buy a P4 "HT" CPU/mobo if you need HT.

Return it and get the P4 even if you dont need

bettter than Intel. Its cheeper. I don't have $1000 for an intel EE. Which
is the !ONLY! CPU that could compete with AMD.

No, you are a troll because you make a statement like "Return it and get the
P4 even if you dont need HT" in an AMD NG. That is trolling 101, really
low-level stuff. That and the fact that you were born ugly and live under a
bridge.

Errm, there has been a bit of confusion ... Courseyauto said the quoted
statement, but Daniel P apparently through the "troll" comment was directed
at him (partially due, I think, to Courseyauto's non-standard quoting
style).

I wouldn't know, haven't owned one since around 1996. ;P

They both make fine chips although I like AMD personally. If for no
other reason, because they keep competitive pressure on Intel. I have
5 current working PCs, four of which are AMD, and my old PIII-450 is
still going strong. Likely not too much longer though. Not because it
is dying or anything, but I'm running out of room...
