What if....

[Grendel99]

Intel and AMD were the same price clock for clock. Say a T-bird 1GHZ cost $175 and a P3-1GHZ cost $175? What would you get? As for the the Duron/Celeron, I think most of us will say Duron anyday. But really which one would you pick IF they were the same price clock for clock?

And if MoBo's cost the same..

Athlon T-Bird for me.

AMD for me, i dunno why, i used to have a K6-2 400, i hated it, so i went to a celeron 366@550 and liked it, and just recently(sine my BM6 for some reason would not support a PIII or celeron faster than 600) I got a duron, and i am very happy with it. So i would go AMD.

Duron's over Celerons....

but p3 over t-bird? i'm not sure....

what the hell! AMD ALL THE WAY!!!

 

[nippyjun]

I'd get the Duron. Clock for clock the duron is faster.

I think clock for clock, PIII were fastest last time I checked, this may have changed though with drivers etc.

Anyway, I'd go with the AMD

Personally, I like AMD. T-bird...Duron...it doesn't matter.

Give me AMD over Intel any day (I know, one of my systems still uses a P3, but trust me, pretty soon you'll be seeing an AMD-themed change for that system)

i think i've completely made the switch to amd, i don't think i'd go back to intel

especially now that there's an alternative OC'er to the celerons (durons)
