Which CPU will you choose?

The OP made it clear in his first post why he didn't want Intel so it's a thread fail anyway. After that was all downhill from there. Predictable....

Thread Fail????
:erm: no....

I am actually leaning more towards the Intel ATM, but anyway.......
 
If you don't mind the slight performance hit (which I think is a a little over the 5% mentioned by Archer BUT I have not done calculations and huge comparisons between reviews and crunched the numbers, this is just my own perception of the results I've read) get AMD

Check the 1600x1200 result. See how every CPU offers just about the same FPS. They get even closer at with higher resolutions. So in fact its a little less than the 5% I mentioned earlier.

edit: more of the same -

Look, it really is a win win situation. If you go AMD you win, if you got intel the terrorist win and we get to make fun of you and generally just troll you. So like I said, win win.
 
We know movies are fake.
The good guys always win in movies.
Thus it is fake for the good guys to win..
Hence you must support Intel :p as from above bad guys must win :)
 
LOL did you have an anurism? when you heard about the new Nokia OS and CPUs?
 
LOL - I sometimes look at people's signatures if they have their system stats in it and I laugh. They all have OK CPUs, little storage, way over powered PSUs and "graphics cards". Like the onboard 4200 I have is not gonna render full HD smoothly... pft!
I have a 955 BE, 8GB RAM, 7TB storage and a Coolermaster 550w PSU in a microATX case - and my PC is the ultimate cause its got Win 7 Enterprise. Its the best cause its not intel.

Don't mess with thee Rouxenator.

lol but can it play crysis on full :p No? useless PC..

People build up PCs that suit them and their needs... Not every one will be content with what you have.. Nor need what you have..
I don't need 7 TB of storage.. Thats way overkill for me..
 
Oh games - yes I played those on the old 486 DX2/66 when playing games was still cool. My onboard does handle UT3 OK so its more than enough for the 10 minutes a year I spend in games.
7TB is not enough - so much stuff to download and transcode. I think I should get a 6 core cause video transcoding takes way too long for me.

I am sure Captain Faptastic would approve of you calling him a god, sorry it wasn't google...
