Intel Pentium 5

Wednesday, February 26, 2003 by kona0197 | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

has anyone heard about this new (code named Pentium 5) Intel Chip? Word on the street is the memory for your system (SDRAM, DDR, ECT.) is built in to the chip so no upgrading. Anyone heard anything?

Hey Husipoo I noticed you said the Athlon XP 2800, and not the 3000 with the barton core... do some research and then retype your message.

im an AMD user just over the sheer price u can ge t an amd chip for almost half the price of an intel chip, i find that the bords are also cheaper to go with them.

If u ever read anything about when ddr ram came out u will notice that CPUs are upgrading at such a fast rate the technology around it has no way of keeping up with it. im stick with my 1.5 ghz AMD. i do some heavy rendering but it pretty much all i need.

AMD is cheaper than most out there. I bought my Processor and my Board for about $89 dollars. Starting price in my neck of the woods for a Intel P4 board and Processor: $287 dollars. AMD RULES! (I used to have a Celeron 2 Gig with board.. Had more problems with that thing then I ever have had with my AMD setup.)

64 bit won't make much of a difference until there's software built (not recompiled) to take advantage of it. I'd say it'll be a couple years before photoshop 9.0 64bit comes out.... But when it happens, all you skinners out there will be able to make twice as many skins in half the time!!! Heeehawwww

First off its old technolgy that motorola had in the 40s,50s and 60s. Every wonder why intel and amd where able to update so quickly? Thats because it was already there.They paid the rights to motorla to get the specs, hell look at the chip sets and the motherboards, and youll find it takes a motorla to run that system of yours. The Real kicker is the Itanium which is an Amiga clone which I find Ironic. ITs based on the same specs of the Hombre that Amiga had in 1989. Thats why the Itanium is called an Hombre clone - a great thing mind you. Forget about the inane x86 crap its outdate to begin with.

Sure Peff. All us skinners will make skins faster with faster computers / software...

Do just about anything on your computer and notice if the computer is waiting on you, or you're waiting on the computer.

Jafo points finger derisively at Ryan and wonders whether version 8025 was any smarter...
