Chip Wars: AMD vs Intel .... GO!
4wd:
I've pretty much stuck with AMD CPUs purely for the cost - I really can't justify the extra cost of Intel, (both CPU & MB), for the little bit of gain.
The only Intel CPUs I have are ones where I didn't get a choice, ie. laptop, netbook, and freebie Dell XPS.
Renegade:
I vote for Texas Instruments and Motorola!

All the other listed CPUs were very noisy.-MilesAhead (October 22, 2014, 06:20 PM)

Well, they can play Madonna. :)
It turns out on the Phenom it was actually the GPU fan kept kicking in. That thing surged so it sounded like a tropical storm was outside.

Too often true. Seems like every big breeze the cable went out for 2 weeks. No internet, no TV. Usually we got power back in 2 to 4 days.
Ironically Katrina passed right through but it was only up to 80 MPH. I didn't lose cable or power. It picked up all the ferocity over the gulf.
