People dont (i hope so anyway) buy a processor because they like the company, nobody buys anything because of that, they buy it because of the product offered. The product fits their needs, budget, etc. AMD has the gaming market imo only because of the nforce2 chipset. They is little price difference anymore for the top chips and with amd cpu's running so hot and being clock locked, etc. I am in no hurry to ditch my p4. What keeps Intel #1 for me is well, everything except not having the best chipset. Intels are the easiest to OC imo, run cooler, their chipsets have more capabilities (such as 1 gig lan and RDram for example) After i bought my setup, I didn't follow new hardware and products like i did before i bought everything (go figure) so maybe i'm not as informed as some of you may be. But from my vantage point all that i can see is slop coming out these days. CPU's that don't go with this, chipsets that dont go with that, nvidia falling straight down the sewer, ATI craping out one lousy driver pack after another, Creative forcing you to have the original CD to install drivers, LCD's continuing to be sickingly overpriced, i could go on, so i degress, the point is, You shouldn't like a product because of the company (though amd's marketing procedures sicken me) It should be about the end product, benchmarks and your enjoyment out of the product. Let's settle this lame fireball vote and vote via! (though i voted intel)
