    Worst Anandtech review evar

    It's sad, really... and not what I expected at all from Anandtech. I smell an Intel hissy fit over Doom 3, so I put as much stock in this review as people would put in Saddam investing their retirement funds. Sad, very sad indeed.

    Athlon64 4000+ with WindowsXP 64Bit, 2Gb's DDR2, NV40 600Mhz core

    Smart AMD fans will wait till Q2/Q3 2004 to get a decently-priced FX chip. Dual-channel, on-CPU memory controllers, no need for registered RAM, and disgustingly-fast FPU. The result? Is it any wonder Inte's trying to shoehorn Tejas out the door with a rumoured 150W of heat dissipation? Some say...
