THG has just put up their 6th update for their stress test. This update is titled "Whats wrong with AMD." In this update they talk about the DivX encoding
Our observations suggest that the AMD system can't distribute the CPU's computing power as well among the four single applications as the Intel system does. So the big question here is: Why?

They also have a new set of graphs to look at, its show the CPU usage of each core and its distribution

Are these supposed to be average load distributions or are they current?
 
I love how they blamed everything but windows for the reason why the AMD system was slow in the video editing/encoding...yeesh...morons....(and no I'm not being a fanboy but jeez!)
 
"Friday, June 10, 2005: Both systems have been running without any problems so far, AMD since June 7, 8 pm, Intel since June 8, 3 pm. Many of our readers asked us to publish the test protocol - so here you go. In addition to that, we also show the results reached so far before we reset the statistics. This was due to the SLI instability on the nForce4 Intel platform. Find it on the last page of this article. Just a quick reminder - we had to replace the SLI configuration by a single graphics solution. "


They have covered up the disaster they had with the intel cpu + mobo's very well!!
 
"well, the amd system seems to be kinda slow, and has a lot of problems, but on the plus side, the intel system acutally works now!"

and i actually used to read his site...

To say that not only shows how fvcking incompetent they have been with this disaster of a test but shows they also cannot read their own data....

I hope the boys from Toms read this...You are the biggest bunch of idiots I have seen in sometime. In my opinion you have ruied what little cred you have left, and I will make sure from now on ppl will not forget this as long as I am typing....
