He did change the poll because at first the BX chipset was not even there when i voted.

How fair is that to compare an old very tested chipset like the BX to something new.

They're about the same, but AMD has a bit of an edge for overall stability and ease of setup in my experience.

LOL !!! You guys are crying because you losing, but you were losing all along. The real question was Intel vs. AMD, and that is still what is on the POLL !! You cannot deny that Intel is ahead now can you, and its perfectly fair, so just shut up and pick one, and quit your damn complaining !

BigLance, just awnser this, why in the hell did you change the poll? It was in favor on AMD to being equal to or better then intel. Then you skew the results by removing a very large partion of the poll. Therefore you invalidate this poll and prove that you CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH!


I think we need a forum poll setup. Let request the mods that they do this so it will Be unbiased.

What is wrong with you guys ? Dont you understand- the part of the poll I removed didn't help nor hurt either Intel or AMD, so by removing it, nothing changed ! And another thing: You DO NOT need 50% of the vote when there is 3 options to win, the one with the majority wins- please don't tell me you dont understand that !

You guys said that AMD and About the same had 60% or whatever and that beats Intel's 40% doesn't make any sense, that would be the same as me saying Intel and About the same had like 70% and AMD only got 30%. So what the hell is wrong with you people... face the music. AMD DID NOT WIN ! Sorry sirs...

You are a moron, we didnt say AMD won... we said YOU LOSE since you said more people would vote that Intel was BETTER, not the same or better.

Wait a second... you call me the moron? How do you know what the people who voted for the same WOULD have voted for had that not been an option from the start? YOU DONT, so how do you know Intel would have been ahead?

Man you need to go back to school, your logic and math skills are WAYYYYYY off.

Ok, the new poll was a pretty good idea but maybe this time you wont add the &quot;They are equal&quot; and &quot;Amd/Via and Amd/Amd&quot; together like you were doing last time. I.E. You all kept saying that Intel had 40% of the votes while AMD and the &quot;Equal&quot; had the other 60%, and that intel was losing. Well, while the &quot;Equal&quot; was beating both intel and amd, you guys were saying that Intel was losing. Well if I remember correctly, AMD was behind &quot;Equal&quot; too so that would make them losing too. If the &quot;Equal&quot; is winning that doesnt mean AMD is winning or Intel is losing. If &quot;Equal&quot; is the choice that is ahead neither AMD nor Intel is winning or losing. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that out.

If Bush has lets say 100 votes and Gore has 65 and Nayder has 75, you cannot say Bush lost because Nayder plus Gore is a higher vote number over Bush... I just don't see how that can make sense ?!?! Thats how everyone is treating this POLL which is pretty damn childish just like Gore acted when he lost. Maybe on this NEW POLL this won't happen.

Some people should never be allowed to make a poll.

BigLance:confused: comes to mind right away.

Changing the poll in the middle VOIDS the poll in my opinion.

Well lets look at it this way:

If half of the &quot;Equal&quot; voters voted for Intel and half for AMD, Intel would still have the lead. Think about it... thats a very possible outcome. Equal is a neutral position...

BigLance, go peel your pride off the ground and take a hike. Make it easy for yourself. Do you realize how long it's going to take you to overcome this? Blatant bias, tampering with a poll to skew the results -- you're basically ostracized here at AnandTech. If it took fkloster months just for us to forgive him an extravagant purchase, imagine how much quality time you'll have to put in before people here even value a word you say. . . It's not even worth it. Just leave. Find another forum to infect.

As for your confused attempt to justify your treachery with the poll, it barely deserves a response, but anyways:

You are now claiming that the neutral position (that AMD and Intel are fairly close in stability) is not a valid opinion. That is dead wrong because, not only is it a perfectly valid opinion, it also happens to be the correct opinion, as has been proven several dozen times by various facts and expert opinions cited in this thread. For you to only remove this option when it was clear your argument was in shreds is not only deceitful but despicable.

<< Equal is a neutral position... >>

Not in your case. You said that the majority of people would believe Intel to be more stable. Now, regardless of the facts (which proved you wrong from the start), the majority of people did not agree that Intel was more stable. Neither did they agree that AMD was more stable. Rather, the majority (correctly) believed that both platforms were fairly equal, thus proving you wrong once again.

I can explain this in as many different ways as it takes for you to comprehend it, but you could save me a lot of typing by just admitting what everyone here already knows: that you were wrong from the start, and that AMD and Intel are equally stable. . .

And that you're sorry.

Ok, so now you are saying they are the equal, before you said that Intel Lost... ?? You know- everyone would agree that they are equal although the Poll DID NOT show this. The poll showed Intel being higher- wether or not that is actually true who cares. What pisses me off is when you guys say that Intel lost .. sorry, Intel had the most votes, even before I edited the Poll. It seems to me that the last time I checked the one witht the MOST votes usually comes out on top, and of course it won't if you compare it against 2 Other options, how could it compete ?

And what you said about flokster just shows what kind of people you are. What do you have to say about what he buys or believes in ? Not a thing, offering advice is one thing, beating someone down and making them worthless for a reason like that is rediculous. That is really sad you guys result to that kind of treatment... Anyone that tells him he is stupid and causes him months of work just to regain a good name should piss off, I mean really, that is retarded !

I am also suprised at how seriously you take this. You sound like your going to burst with anger, LOL.. get over it... I did. But I am still not going to let you molest the truth like you have been.
