I would say a Pentium, there very good for multitasking but AMD's are good for gaming. I would say get a Pentium but if you like your games get a AMD.

This is only my opinion others may say different.

I would say yes, 3500 means it's as good as a P4 3.5ghz as far as i know you cant get a 3.5 p4 for under £200.

Hurrahh! im not the only person on the planet who thinks this, it was totally overhyped for nothing AMD blew it away with sheer raw performance yet again. I built a system with a P4 to see what beast hyperthreading would unleash i was bitterly dissappointed to have a large hole in my pocket and with the crippled machine i had created. I was looking for a raging grizzly but instead presented with one of those stupid little sprite monster things.

A lot of people still to this day think P4's are better than AMD's and people are a bit naive in thinking this but millions of people out there don't know a thing about computers never mind the architecture of a CPU. I too was loured into the whole Pentium 4 thing as you can tell by my user name but i know AMD's are better but i still prefer Intel, Pentiums are good for certain things over a AMD BUT there pretty much useless for everything else compared to the almighty AMD

The intel hyperthreading is a brilliant (IMHO) implementation and a decent way to counter AMD in producing chips that are more efficient per clock. AMD can only hope that as more parallel multithread applications are written for the many-core cpus, their chips remain efficient enough.
On the flip side AMD should have some Mhz headroom in order to keep clocking over the processing speeds of the P4's (not 1 for 1 Mhz)

I still say AMD are better because they are still packing the punches with cooler (more energy efficiency), fast chips. The majority of athlons overclock hundreds of Mhz's without numerical instability.

It just not as simple as that, IIRR. AMD is the best for gaming. But gaming performance is ENTIRELY dictated by your graphics card. As long as you have at least a 2.5gig processor, you would be OK. Also I would lose the slight attitude in gleaning info from us all!
A 3500 Athlon or a dual core would be nice. Depends on your budget.

I dont think you get it... he asked what is the fastest on range price of $200. In my opnion, you should get AMD in any range price, cause it already proved that is the best processor around... no question about!
I was reading a magazine the other day and even Pentium said that AMD have the fastest processor, saing that they have the best (Pentium4)processor in durability.

Really? Which part. You can get a 3500Athlon for less than £200 at overclockers.

Or the part explaining the intricasies of why it is just not only about numbers?

Please explain!

Since when you can get a AMD 3500 or dual core for under $200?
i dont get your point why are making that a big deal, you said if he want for game he'll be ok with 2.5gigs processor, and i say that AMD is better in any aspect, beaten pentium in any comparition, when pentium is better the difference is so small that makes AMD win big on the overal.
I respect what you think, but i get to express what i think so we can help each other Buddy!

Here is a site with the same 3500 for less than £200,

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/acatalog/Socket_939_cpus.html

Granted, dual cores are more expensive, but I did say it depended on your budget.

I don't like it when someone says "I dont think you get it", when I ever so clearly do.
I also said AMD are superior.
At Afterdawn, we simply do not talk to members like that. I inferred a lack of respect. Rightly or wrongly!


Not wishing to cause hard feelings, I would rather make friends than enemies any day!

PS I have edited my previous post.

what make you think you are superior than anyone here?
And when i said "i dont think you get it", was to clear up when you said "depend on your budget" what for me dont make any sense when he specifically said "under $200".
I dont mean to disrespect you, but i respect anyone as equal not because you are a member or whatever, if you are a senior member is because you earned for helping others it doesnt mean you are better.
But if wanna go. i take you down!!! :-p just come play Battlefield2 against me and we resolve that, lol. By the way is the best game of the year in my opnion.
