AMD Six core or the Intel i5

[HackHeaven]

My AMD runs at 28-32 always and i have a 1090T BE at OC to 4 GHz from 3.6
That doesn't seem high to me

wow iam amazed how many posts and views this thread got. Well rishwin i will go with the i5 760 seems like a solid cpu.

Thank you for all the other help from different members.

You can keep discussing AMD vs Intel i have fun reading it.

Thank you once again and Happy New Years!!!! be good

many factors affect your temperature like room temperature, airflow, cooling etc

[MoeZe]

Well i had experience with AMD Sempron it wasn't bad, but it makes the laptop bottom extremely hot.

[penihop]

No, AMD chips have ALWAYS run hotter because they use a higher voltage. The "old stories" you are talking about is because back then, the Athlon processors had TINY points of contact with the heatsink, which made for horrible heat transfer. They then followed Intel by covering the entire CPU die with a solid metal contact point.

The normal operating temperature for your average Athlon chip is roughly 55-65 degrees. The average temperature for a Core2Duo chip is more between 30-40 degrees. These are stock clocks with oem coolers.

Before we go any further here, you ARE aware that you are talking to a qualified IT technician and network/systems administrator, right? Because it looks to me like you are simply pulling stuff you "heard on the internet" into a sentence to make yourself sound smart. Trust me, you have no clue what you're talking about.

False, it looks like you really are only a Network/systems administrator. i am Electro-Technic and finished Mechano-Tehcnicum, i do know some stuff as well. Have you ever tested any Athlon with the Gigabyte mobos having that innocent "Ultra Durable 3" feature? It really does matter, my athlon works at 25-35 degrees with stock cooler. most of the Asus for example motherboards would run that same cpu at 35-45 degrees. + most of the new cpu's run at lower temps, either intel or amd. i can always remind you the "Intel Dual Core" temperatures under load - 50-65C and if you don't clean it within 15 months your CPU just burns - people with burned intel's are coming 5 times more at our service - per month, but you can say it's because Intel sells more, well not in our province.

Your ignorance amazes me.

Now what the hell are you talking about "fake" cores? Your arguments are flawed at best and display the exact same fanboy tactics people use to "prove" that god exists.

The Hyper-Threading feature, often people call it fake cores, the term came some time ago when intel named some of their Dual Core cpu's Quad Core, cheating the innocent users.

No, CPU's nowadays are almost never the bottleneck, especially when you are looking ad quad and hex cores.

i'm looking at Intel core i3 with 4GB ram and nvidia SLI , games run fine, they just use lots of CPU@hi-res. i guess your i5 would do better and add some FPS.

You DO realize that the "CPU test" in 3DMark actually has ZERO significance, right? You DO know that it is simply used as a tool for bragging rights, correct? All that test does is sees how well your CPU performs if it is doing all of the GFX rendering WITHOUT THE HELP OF THE GFX CARD.

nor PCMark has any significance.

Time? Contrary to your own beliefs, Futuremark doesn't make it a habit of paying people just because their benchmark scores are high.

Ahuh.

Yes, if you read the post carefully... well rename your benchmark .exe, and then try running it again, you will have lower scores unless intel's programmers found a way to identify the benchmark in memory, not as before by name.
Or, if you know some Assembly you can open up your drivers with Ollydbg and find out the truth yourself.

Every single word of that is bullshit, how the fuck do you even know how to operate a computer?

It is ragezone's rules you are violating, not mine.

what stops AMD from cheating your 3DMark/PCMark scores with their drivers?

Right back at ya mate

Their love for the users, and their lower budged - which actually is understandable having in mind they've got a contact with Intel about Desktop Processors, AMD will not produce CPU that costs more or is faster than the fastest Intel CPU. but this contact ends within few years.

People with Intel CPU's won't believe you. /ignorance.

I'll just say no sane person would get an i3 with a SLI setup

Well, then Rishwin is talking no-sense things.

You know, some time ago i7 did not exist and their quad cores/c2d were too expensive.

I'm currently using the 6core AMD Processor. My brother also has an i7 bloomfield which is OC'd. In practical use there is no difference. This whole Intel vs AMD stuff is pointless. When you put it push to shove you will see nothing has changed. Like a few have said today's processors are to advanced for what we have today. Even the most demanding games can run on 5 year old hardware which the exception of the GPU. If you want more bang for buck get the AMD but the real bottle neck in computers in the HDD which once SSD's lower in price won't be an issue anymore.

I agree, sadly, people don't have much practical experience, they tend believe their PC is the best ever.

if you really knew pc's you wouldn't compare the cores vs hyper-threading and instead realize the instruction set is what pushes intel ahead and will continue to till amd releases their new architecture and passes intel's sb

True that the Sandy Bridge looks to be a promising power house. But AMD's Bulldozer has something up its sleeve with reverse threading to put Intel at the back of the market once again.

lol you sure it will run safely at 4.6GHz? tell me the results iam interested in it.

It runs @ 50 degrees (on full load) @ 4.2Ghz. It safely operates below 80ish degrees, so i could probably even get it to 5Ghz if i wanted to, but i won't :P

Obviously you don't understand how much voltage the 760 needs, when it runs stable at 4.0ghz @ 1.25v. Anything higher isn't worth the lifespan of the processor. You might get 4.4ghz @ 1.46v. Just isn't worth it.

Your knowledge is amazing.
Then go for Dual Core CPU with many instructions and Hyper-Threading , i'd stay with my Quad Core.

And what are these miraculous instructions that push intel ahead AMD does not have?

For some reason fanboy fights are always amusing.

Don't forget, if you go with AMD, you will need to change you motherboard.

Though, the six-core is cheaper and better.

Not true, AMD relies on using previous sockets for its newer cores. To save customers money. Intel releases a new socket with every new core. If you don't have money go AMD if you wanna rebuild your entire machine every upgrade go Intel.
