But under no circunstances well I build a Ford to race with even though I believe its a better design .
The reason for this is I know that I can get everthing that Chevy has out of it.
If I switched to Ford I would have to go threw a learning curve and I would not be doing the Ford justice.
Sure in time I would get it. But I am a old dog that really has know desire to learn new tricks.
Stick with what you know and give it your best shot . Thats the only thing I can do.


im confused

I think David was saying once you get him in your corner he's there till the end . Thats why he is loyal to Intel.

Tom's hardware is certainly bias and untruthful in this area for some reason. I have seen benches where they compare amd and intel and give amd $125 ram and intel $300 DDR to and ran them head to head.

All you need to know about toms Intel bias is his latest test where Intel crashed 12X and he restarts it at various times. Even now he shows zero crashes.

HI Davids gone today so I a little lonily. I was thinking( OH no) I was tring to figure out why David won't switch back and fourth from Intel To AMD according to who is top dog.(Other than the Fact he just hates AMD because of were they build there Fabs. he also said its a lot like a race to him .He didn't explain himself as is the norm.)
I didn't understand what he means by its like racing.
Here,s what I think it is.
1) David laughs at Drag racers (1/4 mile run. Race is over and you don't turn )
2) Stock car racing LOTS of laps before end of race. So here's what think he ment.
Race starts at the end of 1 lap you have a leader. Next lap there might be a new leader and the whole race can go like that back and fourth lead change's to the checkered flag falls and there's a final winner. ( Once the Race starts your stuck with what you got you can't stop a switch Cars.) The guy has a Racing and competion mantality and thats all there is to it.
Davids building a gaming (AMD64) for Tony Stewart . Thats were he went today to pick up the custom painted case. He told me befor he left a package was coming today so not to leave till it arrived.Well the package arrived . I opened it up I couldn,t believe my eye's. In the box was a $340 midget race car raditor. 11x17 in. When this thing is done I well post a picture for you. I well bet money he is going to use a coolcan for dry ice also.
We just got home from tonights races great night. I was wrong Tony wants Raid Computers Chiller system. No coolcan.

But for people at this forum to talk about bios at other sites is a Joke.
Anands last review of Intels 955 chipset was good but it was bios . Corsair 5400Ul was shipped with this board and not put at the best performance speeds . It was clearly marked on the package 3-2-2-8 not 4 -3-3-8 (check this maybe wrong) but it was not run at 3-2-2-8 why.
Also this memory was been out for 45 days yet anand hasn't benched it yet we all know why (OCZ)
All sites pretty much say anandtech is bios towards AMD and I have to agree they are.
So befor you start stating that THG is bios anand should clean there act up first .
These reviews for $$$$ are getting sick.


It is hard to take you and this thread serious.....:Q

When I started racing forty years ago Everybody was running Big block Chevy's, Fords and Hemi's.
I was 1 of the first ones to see the potentical of the small block chevy's . My first year A completely dominated racing with I small block chevy. It completely shocked everybody. So I have stayed loyal threw good times and bad times . Trust me there's been plenty of bad times.



Are you sure David wrote this???
Well he is your true mate....YOu spelled know "NO" in all of your threads and he spells No "know"....He is the ying to your yang....


That is still blind faith...Companies change, designers come and go, and products change...you cannot base your opinion on any company but most specifically the fast pace world of high tech gear on products several generations ago.....

I based the fact I didn't want to go INtel for my upgrade from the northwood (I belive was a great cpu for its tima and against the XP line of chips) on heat, power, and the overall idea clock for clock I was perhaps slower then where I was coming from....Would this keep me from buying INtel cpus and always seem them as heaters, power conumers, etc...NO!!!! I will very much look at a yonah...i wont look at a smithfield cause it is just double the displeasure I have with the prescott....

Leave your door open...CPUS are not like racing and engines....The learning curve is not that tough jumping from one to another...What the heck do you really need to know, and if you did know anything what could you do any differentt?? Sure they may function slightly different but since he doesn't work on these like an engine what the heck does he care...

If he wants to hinge on stability and reliability that is fine...That makes much more sense. However to have deep seeded hate, and the lack of even considering AMD is just plain stupid.

You got that right Brain 35years of wed lock 41 years together . Brain I do type for him 99% of the time . We set and talk while he works on new computers you can tell when were real busy because thats when I am online posting . This was a really busy week for us . 7 AMD64 FX 55 gamers went out to customers

Brian I understand what your saying . My 2 1/2 year old Intel 3.2C is still very fast today not top of the line I don't Game but for other apps. faster might be nice . Now I am not sure I am going to get my Merom PC I get my new media PC soon though. Ya David said middle of 06 for Merom or 07 for Itanic. This all hangs on Apple O/S for Itanic and If Steve Jobs well sell them for PC'S.
David and I are together almost all the time . Work at Home is so cool.

Brian come on you know he sells AMD64 pc"s only . These are our own personnal PC'S . David knows who's ahead in the CPU race at the moment. David has know problems setting up the AMD 64 boards. Both mine and Davids PC'S have Abit M/B
For his customers he likes Asus. If he sells a O/C gamer he uses boards that he password protects the bias(lol) So if a customer has problems they have to contact us.
Brian you want to see how bad I can butcher the english language check out my post On Jehovah. I made a really bad mistake on that post I mentioned and talked just a little bit about the Free Masons And my pc has been under constant attacks ever since. David warned me never to talk about the Free Mason's online I new better > But now I am getting really angry I have contacted MSN I hope we can get this resolved.
