your 1000$ cpu will cost 500 after two months so it is pretty stupid (especially when it has 20% better performance)

I' d rather get a quad setting with 2x 500$ CPU for that price.

Nah the price doesn' t go down that fast, I' ve had it more than 2 months and its still the same price, after a year maybe.

Well if you' ve had it for more than 2 months you must have an X2. My cpu is faster than yours and only costed 1/3 the price.

Nope. Your CPU is midrange trash.

Sorry.

lawl, you bought yours two months ago and it isn' t even close to top of the line anymore. Really funny that my proc costed $650 less and gets 30 more fps in COD2. It also uses way less power. I guess that wouldn' t matter too you since you bought a 1000 watt $500 PSU and your mom pays for your electricity.

Those benchmarks are meaningless, and my CPU scored higher than yours anyhow.

1024x768 settings with no effects on... LOL @ your gay benchmarks.

I don' t care if your PC is better than mine or anybody elses, it probably is. The thing is that you pay more than necessary. Your PC is good, but you won' t need a PC that good until next year. So why not wait until then and upgrade parts for less money than what it costs now?
As I said before, a $1500 PC does the job so why get a $3000 PC?

well if it' s quad 64bit Mac Pro with new intel chips (new powerMac) with 30" apple screen ...I wouldn' t mind.

I' d rather get all 3 gaming systems and a nice wall (native 720p) projector for this budget though

Evil you obviously don' t know anything about PC' s if you think 1024x786 isn' t a good test. They were testing the processors not the graphics cards so they set it to a low resolution so the GPU wouldn' t be the limiting factor.

You obviously don' t know much at all about hardware. And it is really funny to see your obvious denial you made a horrible purchase.
You spent $1000 on a processor that wasn' t even the fastest for 2 months and now there are $318 processors that outperform it.

I would actually feel sorry for you if you didn' t proclaim everyone else as jealous idiots.

That' s exactly why it' s an irrelevant test.

Again, my CPU is still faster than yours - so yes you are jealouse, not only that, you are delusional and claiming I own an x2 or whatever.

Like I said, get over it.

It' s really simple, your PC running games like Oblivion at my setting wouldn' t even produce 10fps, thats why mine is ultimately superior, I can play games at settings that are unplayable on your system - it' s not rocket science, fairly simple to understand concept really.

I' m going to step into your shoes to demonstrate your illogicality:

OMGZ you own a pentium 2 200mhz hahahaha i feel sorry for you.

Randomly making stuff up doesn' t work kiddo. Sorry.

You claim you have owned your CPU for over 2 months and you claim that it costed $999.99. Core 2 Duo came out July 29th. You claim you don' t have an X2 so you either have an FX-62 or even more ridiculously stupid a Pentium EE.

Either way you have a cpu that isn' t near the fastest, which you claim it is, mine costed 1/3 the price and is faster.

No wait... you are right... tom' s hardware, HardOC, every other hardware site and magazine, every benchmark, and every one else is wrong. Your saying it is faster as the only evidence proves your cpu is faster and you aren' t a complete idiot for spending $700 more for something inferior.


*cough*denial like I said earlier*cough*

You do know people can get CPUs before they hit the market? Specially when I *work* for Intel.

LOL @ this locopuyo moron.

I didn' t pay a cent for my CPU, so there goes your whole pathetic argument. My PC is better, get over it.

Now go play on your midrange trash CPU and 4:3 low res LCD monitor, lol.

Haha you work for intel.... that is funny.

They made you pay full price huh? That sucks must not be that great of an employer huh?




Don' t worry, I won' t tell your mommy about the extra $700 you would have made her pay on your fictional computer.

So how is the X2000 XTX you got from your ATI job? DX10 must be pretty nice huh? It must be wierd working for two competing companies now that AMD bought ATI.

that' s what' s funny about PC gamers - they just argue about their stupid specs while there aren' t more than 5 worth playing games a year :)

Actually no I got it for free, they give away free stuff every year, last year I got a pretty good HP PC for my brother w/ monitor and all, widescreen of course, lol @ your 4:3 LCD.

And I have a Geforce, ATI cards are not that hot this gen, but yeah, my PC is better, get over it lol.

This is getting old.... It is obvious you are lying. 12 year olds don' t work for Intel and you won' t even give us your specs.

I know it is, my PC is better than yours - period. The argument was over 3 pages ago, you are the one that continues to drag it on.

Get. Over. It.

And just because you' re a simple janitor and/or trash-collector working for walmart doesn' t mean other people couldn' t possibly have better, professional, jobs. Yes I am an engineer and I work for Intel - you' re jealouse about that too?

Or he might have a lot of fun making people argue about who' s PC is better - that really is hilarious :)

I guess they all have tiny little dicks so comparing PCs is less embarrasing :)

...very much so...


I want in on the argument!
Ok ok letsee here...

O yeah, my laptop is o about 5+ years old and has heating issues when running any application. I have to raise the little guy up so it gets more air, otherwise it will shutdown.

There' s a big crack going across the screen and the DVD drive no longer recognizes DVDs. Plus the " H" key is missing.

The battery has about a 1 1/2-2 hr lifespan.

And now for the specs!

Wait...who cares, cause honestly it has just the right specs to do what I need it to do and may be just a tad bit more. YAaaaAAAY!!!

Would be nice tho to have a decent PC. But I' m sure not loosing sleep over the subject that my hard-drive isnt as big as yours.

I actually dont even know the specs of this junkard. All I know is what Sony taught me - Big numbers mean everything. Im quite sure most the numbers in this wreck are barely in the double digits...

HEY GINJIROU, we should compare OUR specs and see who T0t4lly OWnZ the low-end field of the spectrum!



Arite here' s what I been able to find on my L33T machine:

Mobile Intel Celeron CPU 1.80 GigaHurts you plenty (ooo yeah)
512 MB of RAM (you up dat ass beeyotch!
I think it also has a mere 20 GB Hard-drive...

Dont know anything else...

My PC beats yours.
These are my specs and I' m not joking. This is real. Before I show you my specs I should say that I' m getting a new PC next month. The reason why I haven' t gotten a new one until now is because all I' m doing with my PC is accessing the Internet.

Intel Celeron 667 Mhz
20 GB HDD
64 MB SDRAM
Integrated AGP-graphics with 11 MB shared video memory
DVD-rom 16x max (Not burner)
2 USB 1.0
And most parts of the chassi is broken due to.. eh... external forces.

Oh, and it' s not even a portable laptop. It' s a huge stationary PC and everything.
Where' s Evil Man? I want to know what he thinks

Guys don' t bother with suicide - go for a suicide bombing if you must die.

I' ll give you a list of targest and you' ll go to heaven for that!
