Watch out AMD???

[tvfreakazoid]

I'm sure you guys knwo about Dell's beastly new comp coming out this year. And using intel's dual core with an amazing 4.26GHz. Wow. I wonder if AMD can match that.

If thats an overclocked celeron, a 1.4 ghz athlon will spank it in gaming

FX-60 maybe?

EDIT: Just to clarify I meant that an FX-60 could probably beat the Dell's CPU in gaming benchmarks.

^^^^ its like a P4 EE or somthin

It's not the CPU that is the beast, it's the quad SLI GTX 7800 on a "badaxe" mobo.

I'd venture that the 3.46 @ 4.26 GHz is still a beast

I'm sure it will be quick. But for $6,000 to $10,000? I'd take the $3,500 AMD rig that beats it.

Screw the flame paint job and get a lian-li.

Agree! For this kind of money, I'd rather have hand-picked and branded parts in my comp instead of a load of OEM stuff...

When the specs are released, I wonder how much they're overcharging people for it.

I'm willing to bet a rig with equal specs could be built for half the price.

I think gigabyte have a quad SLI board somewhere.
