I fried/crushed/ installed into faulty motherboards 5 AMD cpu's in the

past 6 months.
that's out of about 300 AMD repairs
Zero " 0 " fried / Damaged Intel CPU's...in the last 3 years ....over

5000 Intel
based boards repaired & tested with Intel cpu's.
Some had 5 volts to the core, a few, I just plain forgot to put the

heat-sink
on....didn't matter ! Bios beeped video went a little funny....but it

didn't ****in
burn up in 2 seconds like AMD cpu's do....Then corners of the cores aren't

made to
fall off so that the manufacture can claim abuse and no warranty ....

wonder why AMD
does that ? ????
Not biased, I just think that AMD is selling **** and telling us its

Shinola.

Well who else does all that? The vast majority of people are simply buying
a CPU to use in their computers. If it's true that Intel is more robust,
then maybe that justifies their higher cost - for someone like you. But
then again, maybe it doesn't for the majority of people who just use their
computer.
