Kamikaze_Badger Posted August 4, 2005 Posted August 4, 2005 Asus tends to be lesser for overclocking. DFI motherboards are aimed more for enthusiasts, but some have had known memory compatability issues. The Pentium processor series does better with multi-tasking and general home use, while single core AMD processors tend to do better with games. Dual core processors are not needed unless you're using multi-threaded applications ALOT. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet you can find your answer by searching Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue_cow Posted August 4, 2005 Posted August 4, 2005 I think that its a great idea that you're writing a book Gujuman. Just remember to give props to OCC in your dedications section Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigred Posted August 4, 2005 Posted August 4, 2005 nope... it's okay KB here's a little lesson.... something the pink site bozo left out, and hopefully can help others Intel = like someone with OCD. it will keep pounding on the same thing over and over again till it's done. and it doesn't take to interuptions well at all. why? longer pipelines. AMD = is like someone with severe ADD. it will bounce from one thing to the next very quickly. why? shoter pipelines. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuJuMaN89 Posted August 4, 2005 Posted August 4, 2005 so far so good, and yes, props will goto OCC and members names too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamikaze_Badger Posted August 4, 2005 Posted August 4, 2005 (edited) Yay, terms I can understand for once! So because of the shorter pipelines, AMD processors can multi-task better... yay! There goes that argument from that danged Intel fanboy at school. "You just said that their [AMD processors] overall speed is slower, therefor they suck [compared to a P4]."

GuJuMaN89 Posted August 4, 2005 Posted August 4, 2005 (edited) edit: rgr that also, info about ram brands/timings/chips is greatly appreciated. Edited August 4, 2005 by GuJuMaN89 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
