And so what? Intel is milking as much as possible from Apple, so why Apple should't look for alternatives that would increase their margins? If they didn't went with Intel they would have considerably larger profit margins.

The more polygons are on screen the more intensive it is for CPU and GPU so why we should't care? We should't care that PlayStation 4's CPU is restricting its GPU?? Multiplatform titles on Xbox looked better than Gamecube and PlayStation 2 counterpart because it was easier to program for and...

Tell me why AMD would't be able to make a very competitive CPU in terms of instructions per clock/performance, power consumption and price? While Intel will of course have lower power consumption, the gap won't be anywhere as big as it was with 32nm FX vs 22nm iCores. AMD beat Intel once in...

If Apple choose AMD over Intel then history would be a lot different, Bulldozer would't exist or at least AMD would't rush it, it would came out earlier and it would be like Piledriver in worst case scenario. Bulldozer happened because AMD got f'ed up by one of executives that finally got...

Only thing going for Xbox is that it was easy to develop for, best looking games in 6th generation home consoles are on Gamecube and Factor's 5 Star Wars Rogue Squadron 3 holds world record for 6th generation home console game pushing over 20 million polygons with primitive/improvised Ambient...

So performance boost that Valve got from Open GL is a lie then... :awe:

Don't be ignorant... If Apple choose AMD instead of Intel in 2005 which is in period when AMD was ahead of Intel. If Apple choose AMD over Intel, they would get better performance per watt as you say so how is that not computing? Even when AMD was ahead of Intel, they were still cheaper...

That guy is biased... No shred of honesty. lol

Apple made a mistake 10 years ago by choosing Intel and they are now suffering because of that mistake, if they have choose AMD instead of Intel then they would't have suffered at all... That rumor that Apple is going to make own CPU is possible though there will be people mad when they switch...

So you are willing to change a processor because of one game made by a developer that has a track record of failing on technical level, Alien Isolation ran poorly on PS4. Games from Creative Assembly are known to not utilize fully multi-core CPU's or at least lack of optimizations which I...

Saying far from meaningful is really an out of touch from reality statement, deal with Verizon is very meaningful and 1&1 is potentially too...

Developers have mastered usage of dual cores and quad core CPU's... Hex core CPU's aren't being utilized to the fullest and Octa core's a far from being utilized fully while Intel has majority of x86 market share then developers put most of the effort for optimizing games for Intel CPU's and...

People that voted "hell no" should be ashamed of them self for being out of touch with reality when we see that Mantle and DirectX 12 API gives considerably more boost in performance than compared to Intel. Mantle and DirectX 12 API off-loaded some of the work and better utilized CPU's and we...

Yikes... You could for 600$ buy a new FX 8320 and a high end air cooler then overclock it to 4.4Ghz easy then buy four 8GB 1600/1800Mhz CAS 9 Dimms for that price and even fit a high end motherboard at that. :thumbsup: When I see Newegg I think about Newegg US and I never knew there was Newegg...

Not true... Its not just the price. While FX has cheap 8 core CPU's, it comes in handy when splitting load between cores so nowadays most games use 4 cores and in future more and more will use 6 cores and 2 will still be left for OS and other things to do. FX 8XXX CPU's are great for...
