cant wait for the next amd fx series to kick intel in the balls so they will be forced to let the prices down and make some cpu-s worth upgrading to with a bigger performance cap between the new and old gen.

dollar for dollar AMD is the superior platform. All of their FX line and their APU's have unlocked multipliers. Intel's Haswell Integrated Graphics probably won't even touch the AMD A10-5800k, let alone the upcoming Kaveri APU's with Steamroller cores.

The crazy thing is how good top end Kaveri's graphics will be. It will be on par with a Radeon HD 7750. That's crazy.

I have been using amd for long and i find it more suitable for gamers, however in the end intel gains popularity and beats amd i dont know y?
|
||
@alvar89 | 7 May 13 | |
because nobody looks at the prices and intel has faster chips.

Pfff why do people even care about APUs that much, when you are better off having an upgradeable graphics solution, a card you can use and then sell and replace. Also stop talking about the top end AMD 8 cores, cos they are still rather sucky when for a little more you may as well go the whole hog and have an intel quad- but also that's not the best idea this very second cos Haswell is gonna rock up in like a month and kick arse

have you seen the price of an fx-8350 8core and vs i5 and i7 benchmarks?
|
||
@alvar89 | 7 May 13 | |
it beats an i5 and gets beaten by the i7 3770k by only a small bit being 2 times cheaper and even cheaper than the i5 3570k.
|

@spartan2 | 7 May 13 | |
Yes I have seen it. 3570k costs a little more, wins more than it loses across a general CPU performance spread, uses less power and overclocks better on a reasonable board on simple cooling like air. For the power, heat and overclocking considerations it is worth the slight extra moolah.

amd boards that oc well are cheaper too its a tough choice
