Why do the phenoms have poor performance

i am a big amd fan but why are the phenom's lagging behind intels q6600 and way behind the qx9650! WHY TELL ME, or ill punch you in the face!

Well, I don't know what you're talking about.

Phenom's work fine...

Lol, it's just the way the earth spins.

im happy with my 6000+ dual XD

well the qx9650 is like $1000 the phenoms are all priced at around $200. i have a phenom 9750 (2.4ghz) and it has great performance.

k but what aobut the triple core phenoms

well you can't compare them too a q6600 or a qx9650 because they only have 3 cores not 4.

they dont all have 3 cores, some were defective, and performed well so they started making them with 3, but thats one perticular model, most are 4

the triple cores are they any good for a 780g or would a 5200 be better than a 8450 (consider the hypertransport also plesae)

depends, what kind of apps are you expecting to use.

my mom is using bluray some casual gaming and everyday paint.net phtoshop and itnternet upload pictures etc.

please reply

bump

well the tri cores will still be very good for all of thw apps you listed, and it's way better than a dual core. since you are using a 780g are you using the onbard 3450 or a dedicated graphics card?

the onboared 3200

we might add a 3450 for crossfirex

the 5200 would be fine for her uses, unless she has any need for design etc.

(sorry didnt see ur reply earlier the forums are a bit confusing.)

oh

yah lol i jsut use the most updated list to talk to people lol instead of browsing

you'll only be able to do light gaming with a 3200 and 3450 you won't be playing crysis or anything like that.

its my mom's computer. it could play crysis at 1024x768 low and codr at 1024x768 maxed out no anti aliasing 45 fps, jsut because ita low end don;t judge it wrong!
