12000+ is an awesome score for any single card setup in the X800s. Especially good for an AGP 8x card. You have an extremely powerful card for what it's supposed to be. But your OC'd dual-core Also boosts that score majorly. With a D 820 like the one my friend tested with you would get around 9000.

Hey, I just wanted to be sure. I have a habit of teeing people off every once in a while so I've learned to ask and if I have said something I shouldn't, to apologise for it and move on!

BTW?? What do you think of that Cube? You ought to see it on mine full screen. You could smash your fingers reaching for the front right corner. Wicked!!!

I think we are beyond the personal thing. Just like sop and brobear. Never take me as a personal attack. You are but a few here that has the knoweldge. I respect that. And I think that we should be able to"challange" each other knowing it is not a flame or such. You know, like ying and yang. As long as we know this.. lets get it on!

What happened to the screen size... way too wide in this forum.

Oh, about the amd chip, I did find the jumper and set it too 500. A lot better, but still 500 mgz.

The cube.. is great... I sure hope others can enjoy clarity!

One question though.. I thought this was a amd vs intel thread? It seems to be a vidio card thread. Not that I am complaning.

Speaking of "on-topic", today is the "Day of the Conroe". Or is it? Will we have to wait until the "Official Corporate Release" of the Conroe on the 27th? What will this do to AMD's plans for the 24th, if the Conroe isn't out "Officially" until the 27th? Will Intel release the official prices on the 23rd or the 27th, or will they make AMD wait? Neph's right, it does sound like a soap Opera! Will Donald marry Daisey and stop giving us that "Nephew" crap? Opps, Flashback!

baltekmi,

Intel does not have 2 million chips on hand. First they don't have the manufacturing capacity for that kind of production nor have they had near enough time to accomplish it. With the broad variety of chips needed, there are going to be shortages, especially Conroes in the not too distant future! I sure am glad that I'm not jonesing for a new build. I guess the answers to these and other questions will have to wait and unfold for us to know. Certainly by Wednesday, we should know where all the parties involved, stand!

Just a thought or two! On your mark, get set, Conroe!!!

Happy computering,

U know what pisses me off?
the fast of AMD not cutting the prices of the 1mg cores..
aurgg... i was going to get the 4600 but.. :( thats the 2.2 1mg right?
but they arnt going to drop the prices.. so i am really annoyed.. because i know a duel core would be the best thing to get at this point..

i was looking at what i want to get.. and i thing i need to decide after AMD drops the prices of everything.. :)
i kow i need a new video... but if i can make an entire AM2 build, should i?

or should i keep this and upgrade?

It is 2 millions DOLLARS of stock allready on hand. I left that out and never edited it.
Also I'm not going to build till after the first of the year or when the snow flies. SO by then the quad cores will be out and who knows
As far as right now I would be leary of a conrow build, as the mother boards are really not capatiable yet. So I want to so the mobo's get better first.. and what is PECI? If the board does not have that, it will not even boot or post.

FIHSNERD ,the amd2(FX-62) isnt going to be much of a perforance gain i would wait till the amd3 came out. just upgrade what you have now the 939 socket is going to be around a long time and will still be good in 2 or 3 years down the road. the amd 3800x2 is really going to be the best bang for the buck with the price drop down to 170.00 dollars or just bit the bullet and get the 1meg cache core like i did . the amd Opteron 175 Demark i got is great and i dont regreat spending 500 dollars on it at all.

FIHSNERD,
Today is supposed to be the day AMD cuts the prices 30 to 50% on all the dual cores. With Intel delaying the "Official Corporate Release" until the 27th. AMD may have to hold off a few days!

Happy Computering,

That seems like quite a gamble for AMD.

It's a huge gamble, but then again, with the reported drops in profits and sales from intel, and AMD expected to follow, maybe we need some alliances. ATi won't want intel after being shunned with crossfire on 975.

Well, anything's possible, but don't forget GPU cores are specialised, you can'tr just shove a desktop CPU in there, why do you think software rendering is so slow?
