Since the Phenom will run on AM2 will you (or do you) use an AM2 setup?

GlitterKill · 18-September-07, 11:32 AM

Exactly what the title says... how many of you use AM2, how many plan to move to AM2 and how many of you refuse to and why? Consider the upcoming Phenom CPU as well.

Cpt.Planet · 18-September-07, 02:29 PM

I will use whoeer has a cpu that does not cold bug.

HigHTecHReDNecK · 18-September-07, 02:59 PM

I plan on buying one( or two ) for O/Cing / testing , but im an INTEL FANBOY ( 1st to vote ).

THRASHER2 · 18-September-07, 06:41 PM

I can't wait to get a Phenom to Bench

HemiCuda1970 · 18-September-07, 08:55 PM

Well im an Intel guy.........But if AMD can beat Intel.(like some real deal benchmarks) I will move to AM2......

Slaymate · 18-September-07, 09:02 PM

I voted Phenom-what? I'll buy one if there all that.
I just don't see it happening. I guess we'll see.

Dex · 19-September-07, 01:52 PM

Ill probably buy one when they come out, provided they're pretty cheap, to upgrade my backup rig, which is currently a below par AthlonXP 2200+.

vf1000ride · 19-September-07, 04:11 PM

I'm still running 939 chips. I haven't upgraded yet just due to funding issues. Maybe one day if they prove worthy. If not, back on the Intel bandwagon.

Joose · 20-September-07, 04:54 PM

I'm a total AMD fanboy, just because I like to root for the underdog

They were on top for a while, and I hope they get back on top again! (Doesn't everyone like to be on top?)

Nerdz · 20-September-07, 08:21 PM

I'll Upgrade to AM2 Dual Core, Then AMD Tri Core and try to unlock that baby. Then after AM2, I'll go for AM3.

Master Yunk · 21-September-07, 12:44 AM

Underdog FTW

Chrome_Rust · 23-September-07, 03:02 PM

On AM2, will upgrade to AM2+ when the Phenoms hit the enthusiast level, and the tech. matures a little. But a AM2 6000+ @ 3.5 is damn fast enough

Hibiki · 28-September-07, 02:00 PM

I've been out of the AMD loop for a while.

So what are the characteristics of Phenom, Barcelona, Brisbane, and Windsor?

goodman123 · 28-September-07, 05:40 PM

Waiting for the phenom to come out hopefully before christmas

s1ugh34d · 30-September-07, 01:40 AM

looking to get a phenom if they hit the performance that the penryn gets. Hopefully the octo intel chips aren't out by then...

I am an Intel guy, not fanboy.

Correct me if I am wrong. Phenom is a desktop quad-core processor with 65nm technology. Barcelona is a server quad-core processor with 65nm technology. Brisbane? Umm, I think it is a desktop dual-core processor with 65nm technology. Windsor is a desktop dual-core processor with 90nm technology.

Seeing as I just bought X2 6000+ (which hauls the most ass for the money I've yet seen IMO), I'mma wait for the later revisions of Barc (the cheap ones - as hopefully - pricewise they're slower than Peny)

CrudeIdol · 04-November-07, 11:09 AM

I'm happy enough with my AM2 Athlon64 X2 5200+.. for now.. I don't know much about Phenom yet, but I'll be looking into it
