Gaming: i3-2100 or Phenom X6 1100T

[lloyd_joy]

oi, nabuhi ang thread... i3 for me... phenom x6 was one of my choice but after checking and contemplating on the performance benchmarks made by the PC enthusiast community and doing a decision analyis, i opted to buy the i3 today... i3-2120 in particular... this budget rig is intended for gaming only...

Nobody singled you out. I did not single you out. The argument was directed to everybody. Why do you start flaring all of a sudden like this thread would cause you loss of business?

As i said before, we here are not aiming to discredit others choices rather to correct that misconception. Nobody forced anybody to listen, neither did anybody insinuate that somebody accept grounded facts. As i said before, the reasons for your choice are your own. If people think their reasons are really to their advantage, then they wouldnt really mind what everybody else says, right? We do not justify our reasons by refuting an established argument and by prohibiting someone from letting others know the validity of that argument.

You may flare all you want, heck you may even write a novel about this, but that wouldnt change facts.

I'm not trying to change the facts... I didn't flare... I didn't even mention a name... I just want this kind of thread to stop cause its not helping... It keeps dividing people... like black and white.. Intel and AMD fanboys... You know exactly where I stand basing from my previous posts... Read between the lines and you'll know my stand... Why did I bought an i5-2500 for my GF... and why did I bought an FX for myself... If there would be no Intel or AMD... then we couldn't buy any component for less cause there will be monopoly... Let us be thankful for this competition but let it not divide us -the consumers... And yes, I am a poet, an author and fortunately a computer enthusiast... but I won't write anything about this. Clearly it's none of my business.

mu affect jud sa imo final choice ang "brand" bisan insaun pa ug emphasize na the other one has higher price/performance ratio...

mu affect jud sa imo final choice ang "brand" bisan insaun pa ug emphasize na the other one has higher price/performance ratio...

generally speaking, this is true 100% most of the time... hehehe... pero, if you'll make a proper decision analysis through research... sagulan pa ni ug mga lami na marketing strategy sa mga cpu companies... AMD & Intel in particular... labad gyud kaayo sa ulo ug dugay ni kaayo na process... pun-an pa ug inputs/pressure sa peers, tomas... hehehehe... for me, the choice will be based on proper decision making and not by impulse or brand purchase... another big factor is the intended budget and intended application...

basically, if we will just based on the actual usage, we may not get the true performance details since it is only measured in milliseconds or fps... then all the other components will affect the actual performance of the system as well... except if the performance is really way below the bench mark/reference unit...

i forgot to include the most important factor which most didn't consider..."its the power requirement of the system"... mahal ra ba kaayo ang kuryente dha sa atoa. kun pareho lang dri sa mainland ai, pwede ra ta mag buntagay anang high end gaming pc's nato... even 24/7 then ang electricity bill kay affordable ra gyud kaayo...

x6-1100 mas nindot.. bsta AMD pang gaming na

[3kster]

^ lol naa napud,. hahhaha,..


ma divide jud nang tao kay naa man Intel ug AMD,. it's like Adidas and Nike,.... people will always have their preferences,. pero sa benchmark na sa mga computer parts,.... backread nlng mo, kapoy balik2 sa gsulti sa uban. hahha

I don't see why the thread is not helping. This thread aims only for the truth. That is to help beginners realize that "more cores doesn't always equate to faster performance". You can save a lot of cash going for the 2100 not to mention its far more power efficient to. It's your choice sticking at the other side of the fence and I respect that, but don't drag people from your opinion even though you are not directly implying it. The truth will always remain as it is.

let me remind sa ni "revive" ani na post--- this is NOT about AMD vs Intel. it clearly states i3-2100 vs P6 1100T on GAMING performance. the factor in which the choice will be based upon is already there, and has been answered already MANY months ago. TS was already happy so to speak. why make it another intel vs amd flame war
