And how good are those Athlon X2's good @ handling rendering apps, As good as Intels when u compare those Prices. Not everything depends of Processor alone, Think about Good Mobo, RAM & GPU.   #19     21 Apr 08, 02:39 PM Jaspreetrattan Hyperactive Member   Join Date: Mar 2008 Posts: 122 Re: Intel to cut prices on April the 20th permalink any updates on price cut ????   #20     21 Apr 08, 02:48 PM Naga Explosive Member   Join Date: Apr 2005 Location: Arunachal Pradesh Age: 33 Posts: 1,247 Re: Intel to cut prices on April the 20th permalink Originally Posted by alphaballa We most of the Time use just less than 2% of Processor's power. Make that "We" a "I". Nobody I know just keeps the PC switched on doing nothing but staring at the desktop (which would account for 2% usage). If we're not doing anything else, we crunch for WCG or we switch the PC off.   #21     21 Apr 08, 04:58 PM The Sorcerer Overloaded Member   Join Date: Jun 2007 Location: Mumbai Age: 22 Posts: 868 Toscars: 4 Re: Intel to cut prices on April the 20th permalink Originally Posted by alphaballa I most of the Time use just less than 2% of Processor's power. (I just made naga's wish come true ) Dude, people from different stages of life, with different levels of usage-be it hobby or processing use different levels need a kickass performance and a good bang of its money. We do understand that your an AMD fan-we were all too!!! But not crazy to forget performance at the same time.   #22   22 Apr 08, 03:05 AM cyberjunkie Steroids Member   Join Date: Nov 2005 Posts: 311 Re: Intel to cut prices on April the 20th permalink It has happened: Intel cuts quad-core price by 50 percent | Nanotech: The Circuits Blog - CNET Blogs.
