AMD Vs. Intel, Which is Better?

[SockCucker]

Seriously. And then there are machines with 32 Xeon cores, and 128GB Ram.
(or 256 GB if that's too less for you).

I'm planning to buy one of those, very soon.

 

[entrana]

wow, why do u bbother buying any of them now
i realized these must be servers my friend was talking about, he says each of their server in his company cost 8 lakh

 

[SockCucker]

8 lakh? for 8 lakh you only get a Precision 690 by dell. The ones I'm mentioning
will cost the same as a nice house. lol

 

[entrana]

i doubt it

 

[shantanu]

well i didnt find any board with 4 CPU support..
there are boards with socket 1207F with Quad core opetron support..

and who knows tyan ? in india ?

8 lakh.. no way..theyll cost u in crores(atleast 1)

 

[entrana]

i dont think it will cost crore dude

 

[SockCucker]

About 40 to 50 lakhs for the pristine make.
(32 xeon cores, 256 GB ram, Array of Quadro FX GPUs)

And this is not fiction. Check out the systems used for creation of Toy
Story etc.

 

[entrana]

sure 40-50 lakhs but not 1 crore man

 

[SockCucker]

Soon desktop PCs will ship with 256 Terabytes DDR10 Ram, and hexacore IBM cell processors capable of 2000 ExaFlops.

Sounds yummy?

 

[ajex]

amd's barcelona is coming to rule!!!! and there is the phenom series too

 

[SockCucker]

Once the IBM's cell comes into the desktop computing domain (in another 10 years, hoefully), IT WILL BLOW AWAY INTEL AND AMD.

And that's because the cell is capable of doing the graphics on its own, and
not necessarily with the support of a 3rd party GPU.

 

[entrana]

IBM? i dont think so

 

[SockCucker]

Ok, the joint venture of IBM, Toshiba and Sony for all you purists.

 

[entrana]

^^thats possible

 

[manu1991]

Currently , the quad core processors by Intel are the best available

but barcelona could change all that

 

[entrana]

dudes a quad core processor is a quad core procesor... whether from intel or amd

 

[The_Devil_Himself]

If you think barcelona can do some wonders for AMD then wait for 45nm processors from INTEL they will kill any competition.

 

[entrana]

i didnt say anything did i read my post CAREFULLY
i said a quad core is a quad core, barcelona = c2q theoretically
did i say anything about this being a competition for intel, hmm!!

 

[The_Devil_Himself]

Arre bose I dint mean you so chill out.I was justa saying that intel's 45nm processors are going to come very soon and AMD is still stuck with their 60nm processors.SO technically AMD is far behind intel as of now.
