3DMARK06 Scores Here

If thats true then why is Archangel buying fx 60?

My guess is because Archangel doesnt want to have to get a new mobo or RAM. But if you look at any benchmark sites, you can see that a Core 2 Duo E6600 beats the FX-62 by up to ~60FPS in games.

1+3+3=7 is just mad because he spent all that money on his system and one half the price will outperform it.
 
i cant be bothered if there are better processors around or not,.. i bought the fx-60 because i could get it cheap, and it fits right into my pc.
atm, im running a 3000+ venice,.. and its bottlenecking i think :p so for me it'll be much of an improvement anyway :) as for the cooling.. maybe i'll build my cooling for this one myself,.. would be a nice project, and surely you get get the compressor out of an old fridge :o
 
the problem with that would be water condensing on the card's/motherboard, causeing shortages.
but... if you get the compressor out of a fridge,.. connect the tubes that lead normally to the radiator inside the fridge to cool the air, to a alluminium or copper block on the processor,.. voilla, phase change cooling :)
( at least.. as far as i know it works the same way.. :o )
 
1+3+3=7 the core 2 duo is a new chip.Your fx60 was good about a yea ago but not now.Technology goes very quick.And PRo i think really there is something wrong with you temps there is just no way to get those temps.And dont get pissed but you just cant get it that low with air.

Ex:I set my ac to 64F and after 30 min it was 64 in the room.I trurn the pc on i run some prime95 and i get about at full load cpu 100% load and i get 38C.And you get about 22C.Impossible with even a very good water cooling.And at normal day temps my pc max load is at 53 so there is no way you could get the same because i have same cooler as you and 3 fans in the case.Those 9 fans that you have they cant cool the case that much.Because in air the fans only take the air that is in your room.

Thats Weird when i benchmark in prime95 I get 50% cpu load.
At this time in my area its 66F I dont think there something wrong with the temp or is there any other way i can test the temp?

Remember with this freezer cooler conroe e6800 can be overclocked to 5.4ghz.
Hmm 2.88ghz is that how far it can go without changing the volts?

Thats because its only using one core, so its only using about 50% of the overall processing power. You have to have two instances running to really stress test it.

Whats up with that?:confused:

1+3+3=7 i reached 3.4 and it booted but wasint stable and 2.88 its stable i may be stable at 2.93 but i didnt try cuz testing is about 16 hours to test it good.So 2.88 its good for me so far.And zalman is not the best.I would get custom from DangerDen i heard they make the west water cooling.

Did you get an error in prime95? when you oc it at 3.4 with the volts I said?

just a sec,.. can you run me through that again? :x you're saying he fx-60 is outdated? many people buy a 3000+ new, and they're happy with it.
no, the fx-60 IS still one of AMD's fastest CPU's, and its definately still very good. sure, the duo is better.. but then, that doesnt make the fx bad at all.
 
Yes it does.I am comparing it at right now.The fx is shitty now.And i dont know how could poeple work on amd 3000.But it depends what you do it depends if you really need that speed.Because i do i run many process.At this time i have 174 and they are not crap like some toolbars or w/e they aRE important at least for me.I use my computer a lot i never turn it off just restart.SO i need a good system.

Pro i dont really remeber.And at stock speed what is your vcore?At 2.40ghz
 
oh yea... the absolute desire for having the best off all.. im sorry, but what youre saying is that everyone with an AMD CPU has a crap pc atm.. because the fx-60 is about the best AMD CPU around atm.
just because Intell got some nice new CPU doesnt mean that everything else is crap. im sorry, but you're definately wrong there.
what you may need is a bit more respect for other people.. instead of saying their stuff is crap because you have something thats a bit better/newer.

besides.. 1+3+3's fx-60 still holds the highest CPU score on 3dMark06 here.. even if he has heavy cooling on it, his CPU is better than you'rs atm... or at least it run's faster/performs better

Gotta agree with Archangel on this one. It appears you are asssuming that because there is a better processor, all others are bad period.

First off, you don't have the "best" processor, there are several C2Ds that are better than yours.

Second, the higher C2Ds do out perform the best AMD Processors, but if you look at the benchmarsk, you will see that the AMDs are not quite "shitty" (or rather you won't becasue you have already made up your mind, but most would).

Now I'm not trying to belittle Intel's achievement at producing a truely great processor, but how long until AMD is at the top again? Then is your processor going to be shitty?
