OptikaliLLusion Posted October 9, 2005 Posted October 9, 2005 Which one is better and future safe (AKA not like RDRAM)? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overclockersdream Posted October 9, 2005 Posted October 9, 2005 for future I would go X2, it might not overclock as great as FX-57.. but im sure you can get that processor to run at 2.8ghz each core, which would be pretty sick...

Kamikaze_Badger Posted October 9, 2005 Posted October 9, 2005 Unfortunately, it can be a pain to OC dual core processors. The FX line will be short lived, so go DC I guess... And if you do get each core to run at 2.8Ghz, then find an app that takes advantage of both of them and let it fly! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OptikaliLLusion Posted October 9, 2005 Posted October 9, 2005 Alrighty. I am sure future games *cough UT2k7* will support DC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fire_storm Posted October 9, 2005 Posted October 9, 2005 Well the fx-57 would be the best for know but future wise go with the X2. I don't know about games that need dual core will come out this soon because dual cores have not been out that long and they problay wouldn't make a lot of money on the game if the game required dual core.

Kamikaze_Badger Posted October 9, 2005 Posted October 9, 2005 Everything's allowed if people stay quiet. Some games have SMP support already. But it doesn't make a gihugical difference. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigred Posted October 9, 2005 Posted October 9, 2005 UT will NOT be supporting SMP. I doubt we'll see it main stream before 2008... btw I'm not allowed to sell the FX-57 ES... I've already been warned about that something is squirrely about that chip and it's Vcore not being the same as the retail version... it also OCs a LOT better than it's retail siblings.
