Thanks SBS7484P, good advice. But I notice alot of
gamers like to use AMD processor? Not sure why,
because my impression is Intel processor is better? I admit I may
be wrong because Intel is good at marketing…
Thought of getting Alienware but for someone who knows how to
DIY, then spects on spects, price on price, can get so
much better spects with DIY than Alienware per dollar.
Maybe the only disadvantage is that DIY don’t look as
stylish as Alienware, but using it as a desktop leh, not showing
off, so nobody will see it. Unless want to bring the
CPU walk around as model in Sim Lim or Funan. That’s
why lah, I think people with IT knowledge rocks…
I going to Sim Lim maybe this week to get the parts and build
one up… Can’t wait to test it on some games…
More programs are coded better for Intel and that's why it's
coding and threading etc. just makes the Intel CPU work better on
it.
Sometimes it's also the way the CPU is built.
Certain instruction sets etc.. Intel has the upper hand as these
instruction sets just seem to work better with programs.
As for games, due to the fact that many games either rely
heavily on GPU coding etc and in cases like GTA IV, relies mainly
on the number of cores the CPU has, that AMD takes the upper hand.
Not only is it cheaper than Intel, but it does outperform the Intel
CPU at times.
