rocktrials Posted March 6, 2005 Report Share Posted March 6, 2005 why do people go for amd athlon over intel for gaming? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinky Posted March 6, 2005 Report Share Posted March 6, 2005 Cant you stick to one thread for all your pc questions? athlon is cheaper but im personally swaying over to intel. Nearly all "geek" pro gamers use a pentium ( probaly through sponsorship ) Im building my shuttle in 3 weeks and im putting a Intel Pentium 4 "Prescott" 3.0GHz in it should be swish :sick: pinky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomm Posted March 6, 2005 Report Share Posted March 6, 2005 AMD64 are just way ahead in terms of gaming. Well, no, that's not true. They are marginally better. Having said that, though, why pay more for an inferior product? For 3.0GHz, don't get a Presscot if you can avoid it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onza-Ash Posted March 6, 2005 Report Share Posted March 6, 2005 becasue, as micromart said. The AMD FX55 has put Intel 6months behind them. The have used this time to improve opon the 939 chips, which boast some security thing or something with service pack 2 which wasnt mentioned until service pack 2 came out. but, amd are better imo. Ill scan the review and send it to you if you wanna read. just pm me and ill do it for it. Ash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
