  1. Re:Are we looking at the same chart? on Intel Launches Sandy Bridge-E Series Processors · · Score: 0

    are you looking down on fucking photoshop cs5 ..... bro ? that is one program that many people working in graphics, web, or publishing have to work with. most of the other benches there, are stuff that percentages of population only use for specific needs. noone will universally require you to use them.

    and, you can hit 5ghz on air with bd, and you can hit it good. search youtube. everyone is doing it.

    early next year, 12-16 core desktop dozers are out. every year, new dozers are out with more cores. that is the amd strategy.

    head to overclock net and see if hobbyists will spend anything on this. you wont find anyone who breaks overclock records or does custom water cooling spending $1000 on this. only fanboys with brand loyalty. that is normal.

    your brother is better off with a dual socket solution and amd opterons if he is doing anything that serious. which could come even cheaper than this intel setup and provide multiples of performance. if he isnt doing that already, then he doesnt know shit, and your argument is null.

    oh yeah. instead of encoding in the time that it takes for me to go get a cup of tea and back, now my encoding will be complete by i reach the door to wc while passing through the corridor from the kitchen to the living room. yes. that totally justifies shelling out $900 to encode my home videos.

    well you are seeing wrong.

    in various important applications like photoshop cs5, dozer bests intel's existing sbs, all.

    moreover, you are able to overclock bulldozer to ramp up your performance. and its possible to go to comfortable 5ghz with air coolers.

    no hobbyist will spend $1000 for a cpu+cooler for these performances. pointless. leave aside lack of a lot of major stuff like usb 3 et al.

    and, not 3, but 4 video cards in crossfire or sli will not require this kind of computing power. even if you shove in 2 x 6990s in crossfire, which make 4 top-rate gpus put into 2 cards. apparently you dont know this enthusiast field, so dont bullshit about it.

    It has become necessary that we all ignore copyrights from this point on, in civil disobedience. This has really gone too far. Take a look - an organization that represents a minority of the population's interests, can have more privileges than all other citizens, and other citizens are obliged to that minority. this is against democracy. property rights, cannot come before democracy.

    "... wank wank, yank yank, this that, rant rant, piss piss " -> This is the reaction we get EVERYtime we tell that microsoft will probably kill this or that service/product that they think they are not benefiting from enough. not 4 months ago when it was almost evident that they would drop silverlight, zygotes here were flaming us when we suggested that, citing this or that reason. 'silverlight is used widenly in *insert niche application here*', 'it has a strong community' this that. what happened ?

    there has been numerous news regarding how they were wavering about .net, and when those articles appeared here, the same people lambasted anyone suggesting that microsoft may ditch .net people too, even while .net users were in a stampede in their own forums over questions over future of .net.

    microsoft is a private company with american corporate morals. they will not hesitate from ditching all of you when they see it fit. 'they' here means whichever product/technology manager at that time is dominating the policy. and it varies.
