« on: July 10, 2003, 00:18 »
Just hoping to see how the CPU's stack up against each other in the Personal Computer market [where the punter pays ]

So come on make the effort

Well I would have prefered to buy a Merc but my wallet insisted I buy a Mondeo.  ;D

Just think how much Intel CPU's would be if AMD was not around. Compared to Intel, AMD are a far better 'bang for your buck' equation. :)

I've only had two PC.  The first one ran on an Intel Celeron 650Mhz (I think), and my latest one is an AMD XP 1800+, which I believe runs at 1.5Ghz.

My last three PCs have bee AMDs of some description and my next one probably will be too - unless Intel suddenly produce a cpu with much more power at a cheaper price.

My first PC was a Celeron 500MHz, then I fried it and upgraded to a 900MHz Athlon :) At christmas I bought my 2000XP which is the ebst CPU I've ever bought. If only I had the money for a 3200XP 333MHz FSB Barton, then I'd be very happy  ;D

I've had three PC's first was a  no name manufactued AMD K6 200Mhz 32MB memory. Second was a Compaq AMD K6 555Mhz 64MB memory[bought in a rush] And my latest is a self build AMD XP 2000+ 512MB memory, love it.

The concensus at this stage of the poll, would appear to be that the personal punter buy definately on price.

Look out for further polls, on operating systems, and on sourcing your PC. Well it's the age of information technology, and I cannot help collating data  ;D
