AMD's 64-bit gamble pays off

re (2): Reputation: >>- of course there people are probably getting Athlon chips from vendors who match them up with the cheapest components you can find... the mother board or chipset drivers are faulty? much be AMD's fault!..<<

Granted. And that, I think is where Intel does have a serious edge. They not only create the chip, but also a chipset (for better or worse)that goes onto the motherboard to run the show.

This is why I generally research mobo's and how they work with processors before I start building the box.; Posted by: Wolfie2K3 Posted on: 04/09/04 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
