Im saying, between a P41.6a vs. a XP1600+, the 1.6a will have better results if both were Overclocking Example: 1.6a OC'ed at 2.6Ghz vs a 1600+ at 1.8Ghz (If you can keep it stable)

D*mn, you guys are fast!
Guess hes right =\Yeti101, you are relatively correct in your assessment, but keep in mind that with the advent of the Northwood processors, this forum used to be filled with people asking how to O/C their 1.6A's. I guess most have figured it out by now.

Ralph Nader calls the AMD cpu "unstable at any speed"... 100% stable at 166 fsb? You've had one too many pulls on the bong.

Since when does the number of posts have anything to do with anything? If you want to look at post counts, you've had 940+ posts in a few short months, this would tell me you should put down the blunt, step away from the keyboard and join reality once in a while, it's a whole new world out there, and it's calling you.
I'll have you know that I'm going to build a P4 1.8A rig in a few weeks.[/i]
From the way this sentence started, all it was missing was "so there" at the end. I've sure been told!
I was merely counteracting your overt (and ridiculously inaccurate) fanboyism.[/i]
Actually, if you had stepped away from the keyboard once in a while, you would likely have figured out that Nader is known for a famous quote about a 60's car (Corsair) in which he said "unsafe at any speed". It's a joke son, chill. I'm no more a fanboy than you are for replying, you proved it, so stop talking about it already, you're not providing cheese and crackers with the beverage you're serving.
If it was indeed inaccurate, explain to me why the Business and IT community (and ANY mission critical) don't use the AMD/VIA cartel? Hmm now, let me see... Could it be.... STABILITY!?!

BigJ2078; nothing wrong with owning AMD over Intel, you paid good money for it. I own 4 AMD systems and 3 Intel systems. The main problem with the AMD setups is stability. The 'lower end market' suffers from poor R&D, they rush things to the market consistently and it's the end user that suffers. The market gets flooded with crap, maybe one gem in all that, but everything AMD seems to get high ratings. Time to make the manufacturers (and reviewers) accountable for their actions. Flakey systems at any price are still flakey, fix it. What you have is too many review sites out there, so as to not rock the boat, thereby losing a few companies on the way (no companies, no test products) giving nothing but rosy reviews of everything they get, even if it's flawed.

So true, but god knows they can talk so much crap about how slow the P4s are, but wait, the P4s are faster right?

I'll let that slip by...this time

And you're saying that if I started a thread bashing Intel (not saying that Yeti101 started this thread bashing AMD), that the Intel fanboys wouldn't come out in force, flamethrowers blazing (and that I wouldn't be putting in my 2 cents as well)? "Fanboyism" in general is a "cult of personality" as you put it, not just AMD. And I don't just dislike Inel fanboys, I don't like ANY fanboys, and I nearly always argue against them, whatever company/product they're evangelising for. Also, if AMD systems are so horribly unstable, why on earth would you buy FOUR of them?
